Ingredients
- 85g unsalted butter
- 100g soft light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon golden syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 397g condensed milk (1 tin)
- 100g rice krispies
- 150g chocolate - milk or dark (good quality)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes (opnional)
Instructions
- Line an 8 x 8-inch square tin with baking paper and set aside. Add the butter, brown sugar, golden syrup and salt to a medium sized pan and place on a medium heat. Continuously stir the mixture while the butter melts. Once the butter melts, add the condensed milk and continue to stir until the mixture begins to bubble and then thicken. This takes around 12 - 13 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat then pour the rice krispies into a large bowl. Pour in the caramel and combine well to coat the rice krispies. Add the caramel rice krispies to a baking tin and use a palette to spread and smooth the mixture in the tin. Ensure it is tightly packed in the tin then set the tin aside.
- Add the chocolate to a microwaveable bowl and melt at 25 seconds increments. Once melted, pour the chocolate onto the caramel rice krispies and use a palette knife to spread the chocolate evenly.
- Set aside for 15 minutes to cool the tin which will be warm from the caramel then place the tin in fridge for 1 - 2 hours. Once set, cut into 16 squares.
