Print

 

250g butter softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups plain four
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 tin condensed milk (I use light)
2 tablespoons golden syrup
1 cup dark chocolate melts (or milk chocolate if you prefer)
1/2 cup white chocolate melts

 

 

  • Preheat the oven to 160`c
  • Grease and line a baking dish 8" x 12" or similar
  • Cream the 250g of butter and sugar together until light and creamy
  • Add the flour and combine well
  • Press the shortbread into your lined dish then prick with a fork
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until firm and just golden, then set aside to cool slightly
  • In a small pan, add the condensed milk, golden syrup and the 2 tablespoons of butter, mix over a gentle heat until the butter has melted, and bring the mixture to a simmer taking care not to burn!
  • Spread the caramel mix over the shortbread base then return to the oven for a further 5 minutes
  • Remove from the oven and cover with the dark chocolate melts then set aside for just a few minutes before gently spreading with a knife
  • Melt the white chocolate melts in a microwave on reduced heat or in a bowl over a pan of boiling water
  • Drizzle the white chocolate over the dark chocolate
  • When set cut into squares and enjoy!

This recipe for Millionaires shortbread is, very, very naughty but very, very nice!!  Mine is my Melbourne Cup treat!
