Recipe: Millionaire Bars
These bar cookies are amazingly delicious and are basically a layer of shortbread, with a layer of caramel on top with a layer of chocolate ganache on top of that. Millionaire Bars: Shortbread: 2 1/4 cup (280g) flour 1 cup (250g) butter 1/3 cup (70g) sugar 1/3 cup (70g) brown sugar 1/2 tsp salt 3/4 tsp vanilla Caramel: 1 cup (200g) sugar 3 tbsp water 1/4 cup (60g) corn syrup (or rice syrup or glucose) 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 cup (110mL) cream 1/2 cup (125g) butter Ganache: 1/2 cup (100g) chocolate (dark or milk by taste) 1/2 cup (110mL) cream To make shortbread: Cream butter. Add sugar and cream together. Add the egg and beat until light and fluffy. Add the salt, vanilla and flour and beat in. Try not to overbeat. Mixture will resemble coarse crumbs. Press dough into the bottom of the baking pan. I used a 6 inch square pan, but a larger pan would probably work as well. Bake at 350°F or 180°C for about 30 minutes or until shortbread begins to look golde...
