Magical Millionaires Shortbread is a lovely childhood memory. These soft, smooth yet crunchy snacks are a delight. Any biscuit that has a biscuit base cover in caramel and then covered in chocolate is going to be amazing. They are surprising easy to make but just take a little time between layers allowing to cool. Serve as a snack, a dessert or just as a biscuit, everybody will be happy and you will soon be making more. These can be made in advance and frozen in an airtight container between layers of greaseproof paper.
