Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: Shortbread Crust:; 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour; 1/2 cup butter, cut into small pieces; 3 tablespoons brown sugar; Caramel:; 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk; 4 tablespoons butter; 3 tablespoons brown sugar; Topping:; 6 ounces milk chocolate, chopped

1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square pan.
2
Sift flour into a bowl. Rub in butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine bread crumbs. Mix in brown sugar and shape dough into a ball.
3
Press dough into the prepared pan. Prick all over with a fork.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
5
Meanwhile, combine condensed milk, butter, and brown sugar in a nonstick saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until caramel comes to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until golden and pulling away from the sides of the pan, 4 to 5 minutes.
6
Pour caramel over cooled crust and refrigerate until firm to the touch, about 1 hour.
7
Place chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
8
Spread melted chocolate over cooled caramel. Refrigerate until chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes. Cut into bars.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
