1 tsp baking powder
CARAMEL TOPPING
6 oz sugar
6 oz butter
15 oz condensed milk
1 Tbsp syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Shortbread: Cream together the butter and sugar, beating very well.

  • 7. Over a moderate heat, stir until the butter has melted and the sugar dissolved completely.
  • 8. Then bring the mixture to the boil and boil for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • 9. Take the pan off the heat, stir in the vanilla and continue stirring for 2-3 minutes to cool it slightly.
  • 10. Then pour it over the shortbread.
  • 11. Leave to cool completely.
  • 12. To finish, melt the chocolate over hot water and pour it over the caramel layer.
