I looked up a basic recipe and it said to add sugar. However As I missed the buter. Didn't put any sugar in add a little more syrup, some water and some veg oil. So we will see how it comes out. It was actually dark chocolate orange as well.
Although you can't tell in he pic. I made the white and dark choc up separate so there's clusters of each.
Now to wait an hour or so till set

Stole it from the internet, I can take no credit.

I just PM'ed it to Tak, so will copy and paste what I wrote to her having now made it myself

I left the salt out because it just seemed weird to me. Keep stirring the caramel when you make it because it wanted to stick to the sides of the saucepan very easily, and let the caramel cool and set in the fridge for about half an hour before you do the chocolate because it was too runny otherwise.

Damnit, I'm hungry now! Looks like I'll be picking up some caramel shortbread at lunchtime then.

Not that i'm bragging, but this stuff does taste a lot nicer than most of the caramel shortbread I buy from the shops. Was really simple to make as well.
