The classic shortbread dessert is packed full of butter, sugar and chocolate which equates to around 320 calories and 16g of fat, which therefore makes it very difficult to fit into our daily macro guideline. What if I told you you could have a sweet yummy millionaires shortbread slice every day and still be healthy, with less than 100 calories and 6g fat?
This recipe really is the bomb, the shortbread is crumbly, sweet and moist, the caramel layer is sweet and sticky whilst the chocolate layer is just divine. It tastes just as good as the real thing, if you don’t believe me, try it for yourself!
