(From carnations.co.uk) - though when i made it, following this, my caramel was very soft still so it kind of oozed out after i cut it LOL, maybe needed to be chilled for longer. =)
Ingredients
Makes 9-12 pieces
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Chilling time: approximately 1 hour
Base
200g (7oz) shortbread biscuits, crushed
25g (1oz) butter, melted
Filling
150g (5? oz) butter
150g (5? oz) dark brown soft sugar
397g can Carnation Condensed Milk
Topping
200g (7oz) milk chocolate, melted
You will also need:
18cm (7in) square brownie tin, lined with baking parchment.
Method
Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter and then lightly press the mixture into the tin to make an even layer. Chill for 20 minutes.
Place the butter and sugar into a non-stick pan and stir over a medium heat until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. To make a golden caramel, add the condensed milk, stirring continuously, until the first bubbles appear on the surface. Remove from the heat as soon as it comes to the boil.
Spread the caramel evenly over the crumb base and then cool and chill for about half an hour. Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel, smoothing to the edges.
When the chocolate has hardened a little, cut into squares.
Tip
Why not make mini Millionaires - simply place into a 20cm (8in) tin and cut into 20 squares, perfect for a picnic or party.
