i watched this
I have made these a couple of times and they are always a big hit!
Am I the only one bothered about the constant references to "crust?" The clue is in the name, right?
The caramel seems way too sweet: dark brown sugar + sweetened condensed milk + corn syrup. Yikes
Wouldn't it be better to use unsweetened condensed milk
16 tablespoons = 1 cup = 2 cubes of butter
I'll have to give this a try. Last time I overcooked the caramel.
Can't wait to try this!!!
She is so cute! Thanks for sharing how to make these!
I can only report my experience with America's Test Kitchen.. I went to download the recipe…next thing I know they want my email and phone. I really wanted recipe so I foolishly submitted it. Next thing I know I have "Trail Membership" and unless I cancel will start getting billed. I HATE this practice that is all too common these days. Babish has same recipe for free and no sign up necessary. Suggest you go there. I will NEVER use ATK ever again.
Can I use gluten free flour for these?
Scrumptious!
What is the best substitute for corn syrup please?
I can't find it here in Madagascar.
Thank you
thankU 4 giving detailed instructions
Hello Ellie can this recipe be done with a GlutenFree flour substitute ?
Looks great. I'm making this!!! ❤️ Thank you
Can Elle teach us how to make the perfect Caramel Cake??? That frosting is a bear! Would love a caramel cake, and caramel frosting!
Excellent video and instruction!!! Would love to see more from her!!!
Don't get me wrong – I love Elle – but I hate repeated recipes! Bridget and Julie already did this!
Let's see something NEW!!
What about a Polish "szarlotka" or "makowiec"? I don't think ATK has ever done "golabki" (cabbage rolls)…
All I mean is – let's some new or not-so-popular things!
Anyway:)
This recipe always seemed so involved and complicated to me, so it’s never been added to the list of ATK recipes I want to try….Until today! The amount of tips and information you shared was fantastic. Thank you Elle!!
I've been waiting for this recipe! I wasn't disappointed!
Hold on … didn't Bridget make these with Julia back in 2019? It's the same recipe and process. What's up ATK?
If you don't slice it, you can eat the whole thing and say you only had one cookie
🤤
So good! I like to add flaked sea salt on top to offset the sweetness.
♥️
Thank you soooo much..
When I added my positive comment about this recipe the other day I think I said the bars were delicious. The word I was looking for was decadent. Sinfully decadent! Will make your taste buds thank you!
I appreciate the information on Carmel! I try it every year, some years it works others it doesn't. I understand more now, thank you.
I think I would have to double the chocolate.LOL
where is the gallery to post photos?
excellent explanation!
I was afraid too, and my 2nd attempt was definitely better than the first—didn’t cook the caramel layer long enough first time— but oh my, the taste is out of this world. SO delicious!
,
Great hack for chocolate tempering — using finely grated chocolate to finish the process is brilliant! 👌
Why is 2 1/2 cups 12 1/2 oz. and not 20 oz.? 8oz per cup plus 4 oz fot1/2 cup? What am I missing?
I'm confused as to why they chose this recipe to focus on since there are already multiple videos on Youtube on this dish
Great video! I love Elle! Hopefully, I will be brave enough to make these one day!
Having had this in Scotland, I think even your pitifully small servings should be issued with a shot of insulin?
I tried the other recipe from ATK and the caramel broke and did not set correctly. It tasted good btu didn't look that great
So informative! I learn something every time I watch your videos☺️
Really looks delicious, but that really seems like a lot of effort.
This looks fantastic! Is there any suitable substitute to the corn syrup? I really can't find any in my country.
show the chewiness of the caramel
Boy she makes this look easy!
This recipe has made me very popular with my neighbors!! I have added cinnamon to the shortbread – put in a layer of pecans between the shortbread and caramel – so many things can be added. I have made the caramel – several times – and poured it into glass canning jars and gave them as gifts. The caramel is silky smooth and can be spooned out – microwaved for a few seconds and spread on all kinds of stuff – or just eat a spoonful – it is delightful!! My next experiment will be to put it in the snowflake pans to see if I can make big squares!!
Good job Elle – well explained and it looks delicious.
I turned the light switch to the up position, using my index finger, this turns on the light and I can see, just be careful not to trip on anything before you make it to the light switch…….. OMG, this woman !
