How to Make Millionaires Shortbread Chocolate Ginger And Caramel Slices

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 20cm square baking tin with parchment paper.
  2. Base: Crush 200g digestive biscuits into fine crumbs. Melt 100g unsalted butter and mix thoroughly with the crumbs.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the prepared tin to form an even layer. Chill for 20 minutes.
  4. Caramel: In a saucepan, combine 100g unsalted butter, 200g granulated sugar, and 1 can (397g) sweetened condensed milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture turns a rich golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.
  5. Pour the caramel evenly over the chilled biscuit base. Let cool completely for at least 30 minutes, or until set.
  6. Ginger Layer: Sprinkle 100g chopped stem ginger over the cooled caramel.
  7. Chocolate Topping: Melt 200g dark chocolate and 200g milk chocolate separately, stirring in 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil per chocolate type to ensure a smooth consistency.
  8. Spread the dark chocolate evenly over the caramel. Top with the milk chocolate and gently swirl for a marbled effect.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is completely set.
  10. Cut into squares and enjoy! Store in an airtight container for up to a week (if they last that long!).
