How to Make Toffee Slices

**Prepare the Base:** Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides to easily lift the finished bars.
**Cream Butter and Sugar:** In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar and 1 cup (227g) softened unsalted butter using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
**Add Flour:** Gradually add 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour to the butter-sugar mixture, beating until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
**Press into Pan:** Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan.
**Bake the Base:** Bake for 30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
**Make the Toffee Filling:** While the base is baking, combine 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 1/2 cup (113g) light corn syrup, and 1/4 cup (57g) unsalted butter in a medium saucepan.
**Cook the Toffee:** Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture is bubbly and slightly thickened.
**Add Vanilla:** Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
**Pour over Base:** Pour the toffee mixture evenly over the baked shortbread base.
**Bake the Toffee:** Bake for another 25-30 minutes, or until the toffee is golden brown and set.
**Cool Completely:** Let the toffee slices cool completely in the pan before proceeding. This allows the toffee to set properly.
**Melt Chocolate:** Melt 6 ounces (170g) semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
**Drizzle Chocolate:** Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled toffee filling.
**Chill and Cut:** Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Once chilled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares.
