Millionaire's Shortbread

These bring back memories from when I was a kid as one of my my neighbours used to make them. A really naughty treat to sit back enjoy with a cuppa.

Recipe

Makes 16

Ingredients

240g plain flour

90g caster sugar

220g unsalted butter, cubed

1 tin of condensed milk (379g)

100g soft light brown sugar

2 tbsp golden syrup

100g unsalted butter

175g milk chocolate

50g white chocolate

• Preheat the oven to 180C or gas mark 4 and grease a 23cm square tin.
• Put the 220g butter, flour and caster sugar in a food processor and mix until the mixture is like fine breadcrumbs. Tip into your greased tin and press down. Prick surface with a fork and chill for about 20 minutes. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until just golden. Leave to cool.
• Put the condensed milk, soft light brown sugar, syrup and 100g butter in a pan and heat until boiling. Continue to boil for about 5 minutes, stirring all the time until mixture is thickened. Pour the caramel on top of the shortbread and leave to cool for at least 30 minutes.
• Break the chocolate into pieces in two seperate bowls and melt over a pan of simmering water. Firstly pour the milk chocolate over the caramel and spead to cover completely. Pour over the white chocolate and then using a skewer, swirl to achieve a marble effect. Put in the fridge to set completely before cutting into squares.
