Category: Desserts, Chocolate

 Ingredients List

  • 2½ sticks butter, divided
  • 1¼ cups flour
  • ¾ cup sugar, divided
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 3 tablespoons light corn syrup
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ cup milk chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup white chocolate chips

 Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl combine ¼ cup sugar and 1 stick of butter and cream together until smooth. Add flour and mix. Stir in milk. Mixture will resemble crumbs. Press into the pre-lined pan and bake 20 minutes until golden. Remove and allow to cool .
2. In a medium sauce pan melt 1½ sticks of butter with ½ cup sugar. Add corn syrup and condensed milk. Bring to a boil and then decrease to simmer 6-8 minutes or until mixture achieves golden brown color, stirring constantly. (*For lower altitudes, simmer time may need to be reduced 2-3 minutes, watch carefully for coloring!) Pour caramel onto cooled shortbread. Allow to sit at room temperature 1-2 hours or until caramel has cooled and set.
3. Melt milk chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Repeat in a separate bowl with white chocolate chips. Pour milk chocolate over caramel and spread evenly with a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon. Drizzle white chocolate over milk chocolate and swirl with spatula or spoon. Allow chocolate to cool completely before cutting into bars and serving. Store in airtight container.
