1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

For Shortbread Base: Cream butter and sugar. Mix in flour. Press into greased eight inch square pan. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes (very light golden).

For Filling: Mix ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and boil five minutes, using low heat to prevent scorching. Stir while boiling. Beat and pour over the shortbread base.

For Topping: When filling is cooled, melt chocolate with the butter. Pour over caramel. Spread. Cut into small pieces, as it is very rich.
