The sad stigma behind millionaire shortbread is that it can seem tricky to make if you're not confident in the kitchen. Shortbread cookies are, in nature, pretty crumbly. But it's not so It's not necessary, but let's be real—we're talking about MILLIONAIRE shortbread. This week on Basics, it's time to make the ultimate cookie: millionaire's shortbread.
Millionaire shortbread step by step
- Prep the ingredients, pre heat the oven to 160’C fan and line a deep square oven tin with parchment paper..
- Cream together the sugar and room temperature butter. Using a mixer whisk till smooth..
- Add the flour and with your hands combine to a dough..
- Move the dough to the oven tin and push to flatten across the base of the tin. Add to the oven and bake for 20-25 mins till lightly browned..
-
Once the shortbread is out the oven now begin the caramel. Add the butter, sugar, golden syrup and condensed milk to a saucepan. Simmer till the butter is all melted..
- Now bring the caramel to the boil and let bubble for 5-7 minutes. It will get SUPER HOT!!! So be very careful and stir continuously. You will notice the mixture darkens in colour and begins to thicken..
-
Now pour over the shortbread - smooth so it covers all the base and leave to cool..
-
Melt the chocolate - I find in the microwave is easiest - heat for 10 seconds then stir and repeat till almost completely smooth. If you take out it will continue to cook so underdone is best as it will still melt when out the microwave. Repeat for the white chocolate. Once ready pour over the caramel and make a pretty pattern!.
- Leave to cool for 1-2 hours (once cooled enough move to the fridge to harden). Once fully hard you can remove from the tin and cut into squares. These will last in a sealed Tupperware for up to a week (if they last that long.....!)..
