Description

Scottish Tablet is a delightful treat that captures the essence of traditional Scottish confectionery. With its rich, buttery flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture, this sweet treat is perfect for sharing or enjoying with a cup of tea. The process of bringing the ingredients to a gentle boil and then beating the mixture until it thickens creates a nostalgic experience, reminiscent of cozy afternoons spent in the kitchen. Once set and cut into squares, each bite offers a sweet reminder of the simple pleasures in life.

Method

  1. 1

    Bring all the ingredients to the boil slowly in a large thick-bottomed saucepan and stir regularly.

  2. 2

    After a few minutes, test consistency by dropping a little of the mixture into cold water (it should be like soft putty), or use a sugar thermometer and stop heating when it reaches soft ball stage (240 F/180 C).

  3. 3

    Remove from the heat and beat with a wooden spoon until the mixture begins to solidify.

  4. 4

    Pour into a greased tray.

  5. 5

    Once set, cut into squares.
