Caramel Shortbread, or Millionaire's Shortbread is one of my favourite sweet treats ever, so I thought I'd share this recipe for them with you! They might not be the healthiest thing but they sure do taste good! I hope you enjoy!
Base:
- 50g (2oz) soft brown sugar
- 125g (4oz) butter, softened
- 150g (5 1/2oz) self-raising flour
1. First of all pre-heat the oven to 180°C, 350°F, gas mark 4. Then grease and line a 18 x 28cm (7 x 11in) tin with baking paper.
2. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the flour and mix until combined.
3. Press the mixture over the base of the tin and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden (make sure your hands are clean!) Then leave to cool.
Caramel Topping:
- 397g (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 125g (4oz) butter, diced
- 75g (3oz) soft light brown sugar
- 50ml (2tbsp) golden syrup
4. Next, place the caramel topping ingredients in a saucepan. Place over low heat until dissolved and bring to the boil. Continue to boil, stirring continuously, for 10 to 12 minutes.
5. Pour the caramel topping over the base. Leave to cool completely, (once its cooled down a bit I put it in the fridge).
- 75g (4oz) white chocolate of your choice
- 75g (4oz) milk chocolate of your choice
6. Melt the chocolate in separate bowls over a pan of simmering water.
7. Pour the chocolate milk and white chocolate over the caramel and swirl together with the back of a spoon.
8. Leave to set, then cut into squares.
So there it is, let me know if you make these and if you like baking posts. Thank you for reading!
Love, Emma x
