    I'm a shortbread fan so when I made these, I used the full amount for the shortbread but halved the caramel and chocolate. It's a good thing I did, otherwise it would've been way too rich. Like some other reviewers said, these taste like a Twix candy bar, and I happen to love Twix so I enjoyed them. However, I probably won't make this again unless attending a potluck or gathering of some sort. It's too rich and too much for me and my family to eat by ourselves.

    I made this recipe for work and it was a HIT! I took Michelles suggestion of using the Nestles La Lechera. Dulce de Leche in place of the condensed milk. That made it extremely easy. All you need is a strong cup of coffee or a big glass of milk! YUM! This is definitely a keeper.

    This recipe is one of my familys favorite. What i like is that it's not so sweet. A little bit of heaven.

    I felt it would have been better to create your own caramel layer. This recipe is not what it seems. It took me two time out with this recipe. What a shame... It took me over 60 minutes to create the so called "caramel layer." I will not attempt to make this recipe again. Seriously, you cannot take condensed milk and have it come up to the perfect "amber" color in 20 minutes. Please do not waste your money on trying this recipe.

    I don't know what I did wrong but the caramel took 45 mins to get amber colored and then it was hard when it cooled. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Love the taste, would love to make again if I can figure out the caramel. Help!!

    OMG!! I made this and it was amazing!! The best thing I ever ate! I had no problem making it either...just make sure you cook the condensed milk long enough to reach carmel stage...and cool completely before eating...and then bring it to work or you will eat the whole batch yourself..like I did!!

    this is soooo delicious and very easy. the dulce de leche took about 20 minutes for me. it was perfect. i also halved the recipe but everything turned out just fine for me. will definitely be making more and more and more. for those who didn't like it, give it another shot! not sure why it didn't turn out for some, but the only advice i can think of to offer is to make sure that each layer is cooled before you add the next. these things are addicting.

    I halved the recipe and wonder if this is why the caramel layer did not turn out. It ended up overcooked because I followed the time in the recipe. The caramel layer did not stick to the shortbread and ended up being very very tough. Anyhow I do not usually have a difficult time with recipes and will not make this again.

    I had no problems with the caramel type filling not firming like other reviewers. It was very easy and I thought it tasted AMAZING!!! I love desserts and it's extremely rich, very yummy. I will definitely be making it again. Thanks!

    I wanted so badly for this to be my go to recipe of the year, but it wasn't. I tried 3 separate times to make this recipe, followed the directions exactly each time, even tried a different brand condensed milk. The chocolate and shortbread were great, and my guests raved about the chocolate bites that ended up broken off the "leche" part. The "toffee" milk center never has turned hard. It is more like a soft carmel. Never the nice toffee bite that Claire got during her show, even after refridgeration. So now I make the top and bottom, no middle, and it is wonderful. Gina
