INGREDIENTS

  • 5 tbsp Lyle's Golden Syrup
  • 200g (7oz) Fairtrade Tate & Lyle Golden Caster Sugar
  • 2 rounded tsp bicarbonate of soda
Lyle's Golden Syrup Tin

INSTRUCTIONS

It’s just a hop, skip and a jump to brew up these luscious chunks:

  1. Combine the Lyle's Golden Syrup and the Golden Caster Sugar in a large pan and stir over a low heat until the sugar melts. (Don't let it bubble until the grains have completely dissolved, then simmer on a low heat for 5-10 minutes until you have a gorgeous amber-coloured caramel.)
  2. Remove the pan from the heat, very quickly add the bicarbonate of soda and beat with a wooden spoon until the mixture is foaming. Immediately pour into a greased and lined 20cm (8”) brownie tin- where it should continue to bubble nicely.
  3. Leave to cool and set for about 1-2 hours until hard and brittle, then break into bite-size chunks.

 

CHEF'S TIP

Crunch it up nice and small to add to ice cream - or leave it generously chunky to pick at when peckish.
