Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Combine all Shortbread ingredients in a bowl and mix until a dough forms. Press into an 8x8 inch baking pan lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely.
To make the Caramel, combine all Caramel ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil. Continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the caramel is thick and golden brown. Pour over the cooled shortbread.
Let the caramel cool completely.
To make the Chocolate Topping, melt the chocolate and oil together in a double boiler or microwave. Pour over the cooled caramel.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting into squares.
