Instructions
- Place a non-stick pan on a low heat and mix in the caster sugar and water.
- Leave to caramelise for 20-25 minutes, it is important not to bring the heat up, as the caramel can burn quickly.
- Use a hand mixer to beat the butter and icing sugar until soft, then add the eggs one by one and mix well until incorporated.
- Once the caramel has a light brown colour, add the butter mixture and whisk well for 5 minutes until the smooth and has a darker brown colour.
- Remove from the heat, mix in the chopped walnuts.
- Sandwich two wafer sheets together by spreading the caramel and walnut filling on each side.
- Leave to cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before serving.
Notes
- Click on the US Customary link to see the measurements displayed in cups and ounces.
- The servings can be adjusted by clicking the number next to Servings.
- Wafer sheets come in all sorts of sizes and shapes. The ones I used for this particular recipe are small and round, and don't need slicing.
- A more popular version is the large sheets in a rectangle shape, which would fit a baking tray. In this case, you can spread the filling over the bottom sheet, then top with another sheets, and once the caramel sets, you can slice everything up into bars.
- When the caramel cools down, the wafer sheets soften, so it's a lot easier to slice then, without the risk of breaking them.
