This homemade Millionaire Shortbread is the ultimate sweet, indulgent dessert—layers of buttery shortbread, gooey caramel, and silky chocolate all in one easy-to-follow bar.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter room temperature
- Pinch fine sea salt
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter cubed
- 1 tbsp light corn syrup (or honey) to keep caramel smooth
- 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp flaky sea salt for sprinkling (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch pan with foil or parchment, leaving a 1-inch overhang.
- Whisk flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add room-temp butter and blend until coarse crumbs form. Press into pan and bake for 18-20 minutes.
- Melt butter, brown sugar, cream, and corn syrup in a saucepan until thickened. Pour over baked shortbread base and chill until set.
- Melt chocolate chips with butter. Spread over the caramel layer and sprinkle with sea salt. Chill until firm.
- Slice into squares and serve. Enjoy the indulgent layers of caramel, chocolate, and shortbread!
Notes
For a balanced sweetness, use coconut sugar and a sprinkle of sea salt. Customize with nuts, espresso, or additional sea salt. Can be stored in the fridge for up to 7 days or frozen for longer preservation.
