Description

A heavenly confection with a buttery crunch, rich caramel layer, and decadent chocolate topping.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 250g Digestive Biscuits
  • 100g Unsalted Butter
  • 397g Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 200g Golden Syrup
  • 100g Dark Chocolate
  • 100g Milk Chocolate

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8-inch square baking tin, letting the parchment paper hang over the edges.
  2. Prepare the digestive biscuits by crushing them into fine crumbs. Melt the unsalted butter and mix with the crushed biscuits, then press into the base of the lined tin.
  3. Mix the sweetened condensed milk and golden syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the biscuit base and let it cool before baking.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the caramel is golden. Allow to cool completely.
  6. Melt the dark and milk chocolate together, then pour over the cooled caramel.
  7. Chill in the refrigerator for about 2 hours until the chocolate hardens, then cut into squares.

Notes

For a sweeter option, sprinkle sea salt on top before the chocolate sets. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
