Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine 1.5 cups of blanched almond flour, 4 tablespoons of melted butter, 1/4 cup of erythritol, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan to form the crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 4 tablespoons of butter, 1/4 cup of erythritol, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, and 0.25 cup of sugar-free maple syrup.
Stir continuously while bringing the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens and turns a golden caramel color. Allow this caramel layer to cool before pouring over the cooled crust.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of sugar-free chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel layer, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Once firm, lift the shortbread out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into 16 small squares to create the perfect bite-sized treats.
Store Keto Millionaire Shortbread Bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
