WOW! 😮 Just look at these beauties! 😃 Malted Caramel Squares! 😋 An absolutely gorgeous ‘Cake Of The Week’ for Paul Johnston’s ‘Sunday Cake Club’ this week! 🍰🤩 Why not try these yourself, you won’t be disappointed. Recipe below ⬇️

Malted Caramel Squares

Makes 16

Ingredients

FOR THE SHORTBREAD
150g unsalted butter, softened, plus extra to grease 75g caster sugar
150g plain flour
75g cornflour

FOR THE CARAMEL
150g malt extract
397g condensed milk
175g unsalted butter, chopped
125g caster sugar

FOR THE TOPPING
350g milk chocolate
40g dark chocolate

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4. Grease and line a 20cm square tin with baking parchment. For the shortbread, in a large bowl using a handheld electric whisk, beat the butter and sugar until combined. Sift in both flours and beat until just combined. Tip into the lined tin and press to level with the back of a spoon. Prick all over with a fork and bake for 25min, until golden. Leave to cool completely in the tin.

2. For the caramel, put all the ingredients in a medium pan over low-medium heat. Stir, using a spatula, until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium and bubble, stirring all the time, for 10min, until the mixture is an even caramel colour. Carefully pour the hot caramel over the shortbread and spread to level. Leave to cool for 30min.

3. For the topping, melt the milk chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, until smooth. Pour over the cooled caramel layer, smoothing with a spatula to level. Leave to set at room temperature.

4. Melt the dark chocolate as before. Pipe/drizzle over the set milk chocolate in a swirl pattern. Leave to set at room temperature. Transter to a board and cut into squares.
