Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Almond flour
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 30 grams Granulated sweetener suitable for baking
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 ml Heavy cream
- 50 grams Butter
- 60 grams Granulated sweetener suitable for caramel
- 150 grams Dark chocolate (sugar-free, at least 70% cocoa)
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and 30 grams of granulated sweetener. Add the unsalted butter, melted, and vanilla extract. Mix until a crumbly dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish to form the shortbread layer. Prick the surface with a fork to prevent bubbles.
Bake the shortbread in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely.
For the caramel, in a saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, 50 grams of butter, and 60 grams of granulated sweetener. Stir frequently until the mixture thickens and turns a golden caramel color, approximately 10-15 minutes.
Pour the caramel layer evenly over the cooled shortbread base and refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
Melt the sugar-free dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or on a double boiler. Stir in the coconut oil to create a smooth consistency.
Pour the melted chocolate over the chilled caramel layer and spread evenly using a spatula.
Refrigerate again until the chocolate has set, roughly 20 minutes.
Once fully set, cut the millionaire shortbread into 16 small bites. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge.
