Make dough
from the flour with 150 gram butter and 75 gram sugar. Roll the mixture out
into a large rectangle in an oven dish. Bake 20 minutes at 165 degrees. Boil
the rest of the butter, the rest of the sugar and the cream (stir well all the
time!) on a medium high fire until it begins to turn brown. Spread it over the
cookie rectangle. Melt the chocolate with one tablespoon cream. Make patterns
on top of the caramel with a spoon (see picture). Cut the cookie-rectangle
into 30 smaller rectangles.

This is a Scottish recipe. I was inspired by a Scottish ball
I once visited, after which I started looking
for the recipe of haggis, and thus found a website for traditional Scottish recipes.
