Millionaires Shortbread

Millionaires Shortbread

Posted 2015-01-13 by Lindsay Lawfollow
This is a Scottish millionaire's shortbread recipe. It uses pure butter shortbread in the base and so the crust doesn't required any baking. I used white chocolate for the top layer but dark or milk could work too. In this recipe I used a tin of caramel, because I had a spare one to use up. It was a bit too squishy, so homemade caramel would probably work better, as it tends to set better: try my recipe for Caramel Sauce .



Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Makes: 8 servings



Ingredients
400g butter shortbread
75g butter
300g caramel
200g white chocolate

Method
  • Line a baking pan with greaseproof paper - I used a 20cm round one, but go with whatever shape you have.
  • Blitz the shortbread biscuit to a fine crumb in a food processor (or bash it to bits with a rolling pin and a food bag).
  • Melt the butter over a low heat or in the microwave and then combine with the biscuit crumbs.
  • Press the biscuity buttery mixture into the bottom of the baking pan. Smooth down with the back of a spoon and then put it in the fridge to set.



  • Once set, spoon the caramel over the biscuit base. Put it back in the fridge.



  • Put a heat-proof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water.
  • Melt the white chocolate and then pour over the caramel. Tip it around to even it out and put it in the fridge to set.



  • Decorate with edible glitter for a luxe look.
