Millionaires Shortbread

"Millionaires Shortbread contains three layers. One of a melt-in-the-mouth, buttery shortbread, the next a thick and creamy caramel and finally chocolate top! HOW TO MAKE MILLIONAIRES SHORTBREAD First the shortbread is the key. To ensure a melt-in-the-mouth shortbread you want the dough to be quite stiff and slightly crumbly not wet. If it is like breadcrumbs, I suggest adding a touch of milk until the dough just combines. Next the caramel. The caramel can be tricky to ensure it holds its shape. To ensure the caramel sets, you must boil the caramel for at least 5-7 minutes. This ensures some of the excess water evaporates resulting in a stronger set and you won’t have caramel running everywhere. If you can’t get your hands on golden syrup, replace with the same amount of brown sugar. Finally the chocolate layer. I recommend adding the chocolate once the caramel has completely set. Then you can leave the slice to set at room temperature making it easier to slice and to avoid any cracking in the chocolate."
