Have never used this recipe, but have made caramel shortbread many times and you do need to let it boil after adding the condensed milk - I tend to heat it over a relatively low heat for pretty much all the time the shortbread is cooling down.
And shortbread should traditionally be made with the rubbing technique rather than creaming! But I'm a purist ;) -
