Easy Millionaire Shortbread Recipe | Kitchen Mason (2024)
Summary
It doesn’t matter if I’m at a cafe, a friend’s house or just fancy making something myself – millionaire shortbread is always my top choice. If I could offer any preemptive words of advice, it would be to take your time, read the recipe all the way through and prepare your ingredients (weigh, chop etc) before you start. There’s nothing worse than getting to a critical part of a recipe, realising you have to weigh another ingredient then returning to the pan to find it’s already ruined. Prick the base all over with a fork (this will stop it rising too much) then pop it into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 mins until just turning golden. When it turns a light caramel colour and becomes thick, (or reaches 107°C on a sugar thermometer) remove from the heat and keep stirring briefly to stop it from catching on the bottom, as the pan will still be very hot.
