Description

A luxurious three-layer dessert featuring a buttery biscuit base, easy homemade caramel, and a smooth chocolate topping—all made without an oven.


Ingredients

Scale

300g shortbread biscuits or digestive biscuits, crushed
150g unsalted butter, melted (for the base)
150g unsalted butter (for the caramel)
150g light brown sugar
1 can (397g) sweetened condensed milk
200g semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for gloss)
Pinch of sea salt (optional)


Instructions

Step 1: Line an 8x8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine the crushed biscuits and 150g of melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3: Press the biscuit mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Use a flat-bottomed glass to ensure it is packed tightly. Place in the fridge to chill while you make the caramel.
Step 4: In a medium saucepan, combine the remaining 150g of butter, light brown sugar, and the sweetened condensed milk over medium-low heat.
Step 5: Stir constantly as the mixture comes to a gentle boil. Continue stirring for 5-8 minutes until the caramel thickens and turns a golden amber color.
Step 6: Pour the hot caramel over the chilled biscuit base. Spread evenly with a spatula and return to the fridge for at least 1 hour or until firm.
Step 7: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely smooth.
Step 8: Pour the melted chocolate over the set caramel layer and spread it to the edges. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt if desired.
Step 9: Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours (or overnight) until the chocolate is firm. Lift out of the pan using the parchment paper and slice into squares with a warm knife.

Notes

For clean slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe it dry between each cut. This prevents the chocolate from cracking.
