Caramel Bars

 

Ingredients:

170 g. unsalted butter (room temperature)

1/4 cup caster sugar

2 1/2 egg yolks (large eggs)

102 g. plain flour 

1/2 cup milk powder

1/2 cup + 1 tbsp. sweetened condensed milk

1/4 cup sliced almonds

Methods:

1. Line the bottom of a 9" x 13" baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl sift together flour and milk powder.
3. In a stand mixer bowl, cream butter and sugar until creamy and fluffy.  Beat in egg yolks, one at a time, just until combined.
4. Add the flour mixture gradually and beat to incorporate, alternately with the condensed milk.  Do not over beat.  Scrap the sides of the bowl down to ensure even mixing.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.  Level with spatula and sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top.
6. Bake in a preheated oven of 176 degree Celsius for 30-35 minutes or until the top is lightly golden and sides are starting to brown.
7. Allow the caramel bar cake to cool completely before slicing.
8. Store leftover caramel bars in airtight container.
