So disappointed with result. The result was really hard caramel and horribly crumbly base.

I'm not sure if the 8mins of boiling it is overdoing it a bit? I would try again but make a few adjustments (reduce timing of boiling caramel, and more butter in the base as it was quite a small amount for that much biscuit), approved=true, user_name=Mel, hs_createdate=1702249879979, rating_new__1_5_=2, id=11175401011}, {comment_text=yum, approved=true, user_name=jack.c, hs_createdate=1702249879500, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175546157}, {comment_text=Not a fan, its just didn't work. the base was soft, and the caramel was to hard and chewy. Also the heat needs to be on medium to not burn the caramel., approved=true, user_name=Marissa, hs_createdate=1702249878825, rating_new__1_5_=1, id=11175427097}, {comment_text=Of all the recipes I chose this one because it came from Chelsea, a trusted brand. Broke my own rule that you dont try a new recipe on guests but how hard could it be? Just a simple banoffie pie? It was awful, the caramel set like toffee inspite of my cooking it for only 5 minutes and the base was very crumbly. Lucky my guests were old chums and they didnt care. I later reread the recipe and noticed Chelsea have written that they haven't actually tested this recipe!, approved=true, user_name=Katie, hs_createdate=1702249878696, rating_new__1_5_=1, id=11175343156}, {comment_text=The instructions for the cameral are incorrect - 8 minutes is too long as the caramel starts to split after 4., approved=true, user_name=Carol, hs_createdate=1702249878049, rating_new__1_5_=1, id=11175405444}, {comment_text=Simple..Quick..Easy..and Deliciously Delectable!!!, approved=true, user_name=Angela, hs_createdate=1702249877994, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175546133}, {comment_text=Not a big fan. I think the method needs more instructions - it's just too vague. Needs to be measured instructions. Due to that I think results will be too skewed and varied. Found the caramel too sweet and too much., approved=true, user_name=Rach, hs_createdate=1702249877659, rating_new__1_5_=2, id=11175343141}, {comment_text=My caramel tasted very grainy. What did I do wrong.CHELSEA: Hi there, sorry to hear that! Grainy caramel can be a result of undercooking or overcooking the caramel, or sugar crystallisation. For the latter, brushing the sides of the pot with a wet pastry brush during cooking can help to prevent this., approved=true, user_name=sue, hs_createdate=1702249876688, rating_new__1_5_=1, id=11175572881}]}
