Millionaire Shortbread

Decadent dessert made of shortbread, caramel, and chocolate.

Ingredients Directions
The shortbread:

  • 170 g AP flour
  • 60 g caster sugar
  • 120 g butter

The caramel:

  • 1 (397 g) tin of condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp of golden syrup
  • 60 g caster sugar
  • 120 g butter

Chocolate topping:

  • 200 g milk chocolate

The shortbread:

  1. Blend the sugar and butter for the base and sieve in the flour.
  2. Rub together until it forms a dough.
  3. Press into a lined 20cm square cake tin.
  4. Bake on gas mark 4 (350 F) until golden.

The caramel:

  1. Whilst the base is baking, slowly heat all the caramel ingredients in a pan over a very low heat until it becomes a deep caramel colour. This can take 20-30 mins.
  2. Pour the caramel over the base and leave to cool for about half a hour.

Chocolate topping:

  1. Melt the chocolate and pour over the caramel.
  2. Leave in a fridge to set, remove from tin and cut into squares.

Notes

Gas mark 4 converts to 350F, and it generally changes by 25F for every gas mark (so gas mark 3 would be 325F, gas mark 5 would be 375F, and so on).
