Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish by greasing it with butter or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal of the tablet later.

  2. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk.

  3. Place the saucepan over low heat and stir continuously until the sugar has completely dissolved and the butter has melted. Stir constantly to prevent burning.

  4. Once the sugar has dissolved, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Stir constantly and allow the mixture to simmer until it reaches the soft-ball stage (240°F / 115°C), about 20-25 minutes.

  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. The mixture will be thick and creamy.

  6. Working quickly but carefully, pour the hot mixture into the prepared baking dish. Be cautious as the mixture will be extremely hot.

  7. Allow the Scottish Tablet to cool at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes until it starts to set.

  8. Using a sharp knife, score the tablet into small squares or rectangles while still slightly warm.

  9. Leave the tablet to cool and set completely for several hours or overnight.

  10. Once cooled and set, break the tablet along the scored lines into individual pieces.

  11. Store the Scottish Tablet in an airtight container or tin at room temperature.
