100g of butter .
Tablet Cooking Directions:
1. Melt the butter and sugar. Add the condensed milk and the teacup of milk.

3. Turn the heat down low and stir for 45 minutes (chair and book optional!)
4. Remove from the heat and beat 60 times with a wooden spoon. Put a wee bit on a plate and if it sets then it's ready to be put onto the shallow trays.
5. Score the tablet surface marking into squares and allow to set and get cold.

You may be boiling it a little too long.... Try this recipe.. 4 tablespoons milk 2 ounces butter 1 pound granulated sugar 2 teaspoons golden syrup 1 small tin of condensed milk vanilla can be added as a flavouring, optional Grease a 20 cm (8 inch) square tin. Put milk and butter into a heavy pan and heat until the butter melts. Add sugar and syrup and let them dissolve slowly. Add condensed milk, stirring all the time and bring to the boil. Boil until 120 degrees centigrade is reached. ( Test it in a dish of cold water: put a little bit in the cold water and roll in your fingers, it should feel a bit like putty when ready) Beat in chosen flavourings if desired, until thick and granular, then pour into greased tin. When almost set, mark into squares or bars. When cold, cut up and wrap in waxed paper. You can vary this recipe to your taste. Flavourings can include: half a teaspoon of vanilla essence; 100 grams (4 oz) finely chopped walnuts; 2 teaspoons cocoa; 50 grams (2 oz) chopped crystalised ginger; 2 tablespoons coffee essence; few drips peppermint essence; finely grated rind of one lemon or orange.

SCOTTISH TABLET
1 kg sugar
1 large tin of condensed milk
100 g of unsalted butter
100 ml milk
100 ml water
2 drops vanilla essence (if required)
You will need a large bowl (microwave safe), large heavy based pot (not non-stick), wooden spoon (for all the stirring), and a greased baking tray.
In a large microwave safe bowl, melt sugar, milk, water and butter in the microwave (high power) for approximately 10 mins (until the sugar has completly dissolved).
Check and stir every few minutes. Do not allow the mixture to overflow. Transfer mixture to a heavy-based pot (not non-stick).
Bring back to a boil over medium heat, stirring all the time for approximately another 10 minutes. Be careful not to allow the mixture to overflow.
Take off heat if required. Add tin of condensed milk (lower the heat a little), stirring again until the mixture goes from light to dark brown, approximately 10 minutes again. Add vanilla essence if required.
To test if the mixture is ready, drop a little into a cup of cold water; if it forms a little hard ball it is ready. If not, keep stirring and checking aforementioned until it does.
When mixture is ready, remove from heat and beat for 5 minutes, until all the bubbles are gone. Pour mixture into a greased baking tray and wait to set and cool.
Mark into squares when setting. You should see the mixture 'crystallizing'.
Eat when completely cold and set.
Be very careful making this recipe - do not allow the mixture to boil over the bowl or pot and watch out for splashes.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aU7WH
The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

round the edges.Keep stirring until the mixture turns slightly
granular,then pour onto a buttered slab or into a buttered tin.
