   In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and sugar over low heat, stirring occasionally.

   Tip: Be patient and let the mixture thicken slowly.

3. 3

   Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the golden syrup until well combined.

   Tip: Be careful, as the mixture will bubble up vigorously.

4. 4

   Add the milk and stir until smooth.

   Tip: Make sure to scrape the sides of the saucepan for an even mixture.

5. 5

   Beat in the egg until fully incorporated.

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

   Tip: Sift the dry ingredients to ensure they are well combined.

   Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

   Tip: Use your hands or a silicone spatula to knead the dough.

8. 8

   Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking tray.

   Tip: Make sure to get the dough as thin and uniform as possible.

   Drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the dough in a zig-zag pattern.

   Tip: Use a spatula to spread the caramel evenly.
