Millionaire’s Shortbread

Millionaire's Shortbread

Ingredients:

(Shortbread)
* 250g plain flour
* 50g caster sugar
* 150g unsalted butter

(Topping) 
* 1 tin of condensed milk
* 75g light brown sugar
* 175g butter
* 250g milk chocolate




Method:

1. Mix all the shortbread ingredients together and use the rubbing method to make crumbs. Press crumbs together to make a ball.
2. Press the mixture into a tin. The tin must have high walls so that the caramel and chocolate can set inside it. 
3. Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes and then put in the oven at 170' for 20 minutes approx.
4. Take the shortbread out of the oven and leave to cool. When cool add to the fridge for 20 minutes whilst you make the caramel.
5. To make the caramel, add the condensed milk, sugar and butter to a pan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and cook, stirring continuously, for 10 minutes until thick.
6. Cool the caramel slightly and then top the shortbread. Leave to cool again.
7. When the caramel has hardened, melt the chocolate and pour over the top. 


Extra Tips:

* Dark chocolate is usually used but I used milk chocolate as I prefer it. I also drizzled melted white chocolate over the top for a nice finish.
