Best 5 Diabetic Millionaires Shortbread Recipes

QUICK MILLIONAIRE SHORTBREAD

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with an even layer of coconut cooking spray. Lay the graham crackers out on the baking sheet in a single layer. Set aside.
• Add the chopped semisweet chocolate to a heatsafe mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Add the coconut oil to the bowl with the chocolate and allow it to melt. Heat, stirring, until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Leave the mixture in the pan, over the water, until ready to use.
• In a separate bowl, add the chopped chocolate candies and candy bars and mix to combine.
• Spoon the dulce de leche into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second increments, stirring in between to make sure it doesn't burn, until slightly softened and more spreadable. The time needed will vary on your microwave--roughly 30 to 90 seconds.
• Scoop the warm dulce de leche onto the graham cracker base and spread it nearly to the edges using an offset spatula.
• Give the melted chocolate and coconut oil mixture a quick stir and pour it over the dulce de leche, spreading it evenly with a clean offset spatula. Working quickly, sprinkle the candies over the top of the dulce de leche.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the fridge and chill, uncovered, until set, about 2 hours. Once chilled, carefully remove from the baking sheet to a cutting board. Using a long serrated knife, cut the slab into 30 roughly 2-inch squares. Smaller is better as they're rich! Serve cold or at room temperature.

EASY MILLIONAIRE'S SHORTBREAD

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly grease and line a 20-22cm square or rectangular baking tin with a lip of at least 3cm.
• To make the shortbread, mix 250g plain flour and 75g caster sugar in a bowl. Rub in 175g softened butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
• Knead the mixture together until it forms a dough, then press into the base of the prepared tin.
• Prick the shortbread lightly with a fork and bake for 20 minutes or until firm to the touch and very lightly browned. Leave to cool in the tin.
• To make the caramel, place 100g butter or margarine, 100g light muscovado sugar and the can of condensed milk in a pan and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved. Continually stir with a spatula to make sure no sugar sticks to the bottom of the pan. (This can leave brown specks in the caramel but won't affect the flavour.)
• Turn up the heat to medium high, stirring all the time, and bring to the boil, then lower the heat back to low and stirring continuously, for about 5-10 minutes or until the mixture has thickened slightly. Pour over the shortbread and leave to cool.
• For the topping, melt 200g plain or milk chocolate slowly in a bowl over a pan of hot water. Pour over the cold caramel and leave to set. Cut into squares or bars with a hot knife.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square pan.

• Press dough into the prepared pan. Prick all over with a fork.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, combine condensed milk, butter, and brown sugar in a nonstick saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until caramel comes to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until golden and pulling away from the sides of the pan, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour caramel over cooled crust and refrigerate until firm to the touch, about 1 hour.
• Place chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Spread melted chocolate over cooled caramel. Refrigerate until chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes. Cut into bars.

• Add softened butter in chunks, working through with fingers until well combined.

• Prick with a fork all over and bake for 20 - 30 minutes, until golden brown. Watch carefully to make sure the shortbread doesn't burn!
• If you are NOT making the millionaire's version, sprinkle the baked shortbread with caster sugar and cut up to cool on a rack. You are now finished - enjoy! If you ARE making the millionaire's version, skip this step and continue below.
• On low heat, combine butter, caster sugar, golden syrup and condensed milk. Stir until dissolved.
• Boil mixture 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly. The caramel mixture is ready when a small amount dropped into cold water forms a ball.
• Spread caramel over shortbread and allow to set.
• Melt semi sweet chocolate in the microwave or a double boiler and spread over caramel. Allow to set (in the refrigerator, if you like).
• To help stop the chocolate from cracking when you cut the shortbread, heat the blade of your knife in hot water, then dry off and cut slowly and carefully. Repeat this process before each cut you make.
