- Place the butter and sugar into a non-stick pan and stir over a medium heat until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves.
- To make a golden caramel, add the condensed milk, stirring continuously, until the first bubbles appear on the surface.
- Remove from the heat as soon as it comes to the boil.
- Spread the caramel evenly over the crumb base and then cool and chill for about half an hour.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel, smoothing to the edges.
- When the chocolate has hardened a little, cut into squares.
