For the caramel : line a 20cm square baking tray with grease proof paper or baking parchment and oil it
Put the sugar and golden syrup into a heavy based saucepan
Add 60 ml of water and stir to combine . The mix should look a bit like wet sand
Wipe down the sides of the pan with a pastry brush to remove any sugar granules stuck to the sides
Put the pan on a high heat and cook but do NOT stir !
When the water evaporates the sugar will start to caramelise. Only when it starts to colour can you stir it
Continue cooking until it becomes a dark Amber colour . Use a sugar thermometer if you have one
When it reaches 185C take off the heat and very carefully whisk in the cream , then the butter.
Put the pan back on a medium heat and keep stirring until it reaches 113-116C
Take off of the heat and stir in a good pinch of sea salt
Pour into the tin and refrigerate until it is scoopable ( about 30 mins)
Heat oven to 180C
Line 2 baking trays with parchment paper
cream the butter and sugars until well combined
Add in the egg and mix until completely combined
Now add the milk and vanilla and mix
Scrape down the bowl with a spatula

Add in the chic chips
Scoop balls of the dough onto the prepared trays ( the dough will be pretty sticky )
Make a hollow in each ball with your thumb
Now push about half a teaspoon of caramel into it . Or us 1 rolo with couple of flakes of sea salt on top into it
