Instructions
- Step 1: Line a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper. Combine 200 g crushed digestive biscuits and 100 g melted unsalted butter in a bowl; press firmly into the base of the prepared pan to form an even layer.
- Step 2: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 can (395 g) sweetened condensed milk, 150 g brown sugar, 100 g unsalted butter, and 2 tbsp golden syrup. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly for 8-10 minutes until the mixture thickens, turns golden, and starts to pull away from the pan edges.
- Step 3: Pour the hot caramel evenly over the biscuit base and refrigerate for 30 minutes until set.
- Step 4: In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt 200 g chopped dark chocolate and 50 g unsalted butter together, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Step 5: Pour the chocolate mixture over the set caramel layer and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Step 6: Refrigerate the slice for at least 2 hours until the chocolate topping is firm. Cut into bars and serve chilled.
