Tips:

  • Carefully measure the ingredients: This is especially important for the caramel layer, as the proportions of sugar and butter need to be precise in order to achieve the right consistency.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help to prevent the caramel from burning.
  • Do not stir the caramel while it is cooking: Stirring can cause the sugar to crystallize, resulting in a grainy texture.
  • Cook the caramel until it reaches a deep amber color: This will ensure that it has the right flavor and consistency.
  • Let the caramel cool slightly before pouring it over the toffee layer: This will help to prevent the toffee from melting.
  • Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours before cutting them: This will help them to set properly.

Conclusion:

Caramel toffee squares are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a combination of sweet caramel, chewy toffee, and a buttery shortbread crust, these bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
