Millionaire Shortbread Bars

I absolutely adore these millionaire shortbread bars. They are made of everything that I love – buttery, crumbly shortbread; thick, rich caramel; and smooth, milky chocolate.


They are also really easy to make – which is always a bonus. 

Ingredients
170g butter
50g sugar
1 tsp vanilla
210g flour
Pinch salt
390g condensed milk
170g chocolate
1 tbsp butter

Recipe
1. Preheat the oven to 175C and place a rack in the centre of the oven. Grease a rectangular baking tray with low sides.

2. Beat the sugar and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the flour and salt and beat until just combined. 

3. Press the dough into the bottom of the tray and bake for around 30 minutes – until golden pale. Remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.

4. For the caramel, pour the condensed milk into a bowl above a saucepan of simmering water. Leave covered for around 2 hours, stirring every so often. The mixture is ready when it is thick and the colour of caramel.

5. Pour the caramel over the biscuit base and leave to set.

6. Melt the chocolate together with the butter. Mix well and pour over caramel. Leave to one side to set. 

7. When the chocolate has fully set, cut into small squares.
