So good, so fancy looking and so sweet! I especially like the shortbread layer and marbling the topping. They look so impressive. Definitely for someone who has a sweet tooth. I'll probably lessen or eliminate the brown sugar from the toffee filling next time as the condensed milk is sweet by itself. Thanks for sharing, Giggling. Made for Spring PAC 2009.

I love baking sweet things, particularly those with chocolate in them! I am trying to make a bigger effort to make savoury things though, as much as I'd like to live on sugar, I suppose it isn't that healthy :-(
