Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, 100 g of unsalted butter, salt, and erythritol until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish, forming a flat layer. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let it cool completely.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan over low heat, combine sugar-free sweetened condensed milk, 75 g of unsalted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir continuously for about 10-15 minutes until thickened and slightly caramelized. Be careful not to burn it.
Once the shortbread is cooled, pour the caramel mixture evenly over the top. Spread it using a spatula to cover the entire surface. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
In a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, melt the unsweetened dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil, stirring until smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel layer, spreading evenly to cover. Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm, at least 1 hour.
Carefully lift the layered treat out of the dish using the parchment overhang. Cut into 16 squares using a sharp knife, cleaning the knife between cuts to maintain clean edges.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Enjoy your decadent sugar-free millionaire shortbread!
