Ingredients
- 250 g Scotch finger biscuits, crushed finely
- 125 g unsalted butter, melted (for base)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for base)
- 395 g sweetened condensed milk (1 standard can)
- 100 g unsalted butter (for caramel)
- 100 g brown sugar (for caramel)
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup
- 200 g milk chocolate, chopped
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
- Line a 20 x 20 cm square baking pan with baking paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
- In a bowl, mix crushed biscuits, melted butter, and brown sugar until combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan to form an even base. Chill for 20 minutes.
- In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine sweetened condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, and golden syrup.
- Stir continuously for 8–10 minutes until thickened and golden, scraping the bottom to prevent burning.
- Pour the caramel over the chilled base and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm.
- Melt milk chocolate and vegetable oil together until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for 1–2 hours until fully set.
- Lift from the pan and cut into approximately 36 bite-sized squares.
Notes
- Allow the slice to sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before cutting to prevent chocolate cracking.
- Use a sharp knife warmed in hot water for clean cuts.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Freeze for up to 2 months with parchment between layers.
- Sprinkle sea salt on top for a salted caramel variation.
