Ingredients

250g Digestive biscuits
125g butter
200g soft light brown sugar
2 tablespoons golden syrup
397g can condensed milk
200g dark chocolate
50g chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 20x30cm baking dish with baking paper.

2. Crush the digestive biscuits until they are fine crumbs. Melt the butter in a small pan and add to the biscuit crumbs. Mix until the crumbs are well coated with the butter.

3. Place the crumbs into the prepared baking dish and press them down firmly to form an even base. Bake in the preheated oven for around 10 minutes, until golden brown.

4. Meanwhile, put the sugar, syrup, and condensed milk into a medium pan and heat slowly. Stir regularly until the mixture starts to thicken and bubble. Reduce the heat and simmer for around 10 minutes, stirring continuously.

5. Remove the biscuit base from the oven and pour the caramel mixture over the top. Spread out evenly. Return to the oven and bake for a further 15 minutes.

6. Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Once melted, pour the chocolate over the caramel layer and spread out evenly. Sprinkle with the chopped nuts (if using) and leave to cool.

7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing. Serve chilled.
