    This was the worst disaster I have ever made in 65 years! I cooked the cans in water for 3 hours one evening in preparation. Tonight I made the shortbread. The carmel layer never got thick, the chocolate hardened so much that I couldn't cut it. I tasted it before I threw it in the trash and it's so sickeningly sweet, I could hardly stand it! I've been baking a long time, and this was the worst!!!!

    I would pay a million dollars for this recipe. This was so yummy! I made as is except I added some salt to the caramel layer once I had spread it on the shortbread.

    I put my cans of condensed milk in my crock pot, cover with water and leave it on over night. Take it out in the morning. Cool. And it turns out PERFECT!

    I use this for several recipes I have and it is soooo good.

    After reading reviews when I made these I added 4 tablespoons butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla and a cup of toasted chopped pecans to the shortbread. I also used semi-sweet chocolate as I prefer dark chocolate. It turned out so good my husband has eaten three pieces each night! This is one of the easiest recipes I have used. When making the caramel make sure it comes to a full boil prior to starting the timer.

    The carmel layer seems to be tripping folks up, but there's such an easy way around it, (why boil unopened cans of milk if you don't have to Just go to your latin isle, get 2 cans of Nestles La Lechera. ( Dulce de Leche It's about the same price as sweetened condensed milk anyway, with no work involved! Easy peasy!!! nuke for a few seconds to loosen it up, and dump it on top! Works like a charm everytime! I always take this to gatherings and it goes FAST!!!

    This was ghastly. I ate one little square, cursed, and threw all the rest in the garbage. I have never had anything taste so bland and yukky in my life. The "caramel" was so bland, the shortbread so flavorless, and I was so incredibly disappointed. The way she went on about them, you'd have thought it was ambrosia. Gross.

    Couldn't see why they were so highly spoken of? Maybe it just wasn't my favorite but needed more flavor or something???

    This was an excellent dessert! Never having tried it, I cut the recipe in half and put it in a 8x8 glass pyrex. I substituted the all purpose flour for whole wheat flour. Of course, I think you need a couple tablespoons less when using whole wheat. It gives the bar a nuttier taste and really is a good alternative for those who are watching their intake of white flour/sugars. Next time, I'll substitute brown sugar for white; I've been told it's better when working with whole wheat. Overall, really good & easy recipe!!
