I made this for my colleagues yesterday. The CEO came to my office and said "Are you responsible for the Millionaires shortbread? It's my favorite since I was a child in England!" Thanks for the assist in getting some kudos yesterday! 😀
@Cassius Nolan Lately I have been using flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
@Bridger Zev Definitely, have been using Flixzone for months myself =)
@Bridger Zev thank you, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it!
@Cassius Nolan happy to help :)
No raise??? Lol
Yes, Bridget. That recipe serves 1.
Two friends: One says "Carm-ul" the other calls it "Cara-mel" and still they get along. Amazing!
Where i am from, we say car-mel. Basicly the a has got to go. Not sure why it just does.
Matt Miller I just say “cannabis” problem solved👩🏽🔧🥂
Joey Morrison say that to my face and you’d end up in one of my recipes.
And a Bostonian says "Cahmuhl"
I just won a holiday baking contest at my work with this recipe. I was told my victory was a landslide.
I've made this exact recipe at least 10 times now. Always a huge hit.
Add roasted hazelnuts and marshmallow in the middle
Greg Byrne Hi Greg! One question: did it come out perfectly on the first try? I’m thinking of making them for dessert alongside a dollop of Gruyere double cream. Thanks!
I tried it, my caramel didn't set and the chocolate hardened and cracked!!!
So 10 million desert?
blognewb not decadent enough for you?
I always muck up my caramel, so I'm excited to try it this way! (Last time I tried making caramel, I made mortar on accident! Haha!)
*update: I made this last weekend and again this weekend. Afterseveral failed attempts, I figured out that when she says "stirring occasionally" she really means "stir constantly". Also, if you burn sugar to your pan, simmer a 1:1 ratio of vinegar water in the pan to loosen.
I agree - i pretty much stirred throughout. It turned out great.
I just tryed for the first time and completely messed up the caramel and it burned because I only "stired occasionally." I will try again and I agree I think you have to to stir constantly!
Get a thermometer it’s the full proof way to get the right consistency.
I made this today for the second time. You are absolutely correct that you have to stir constantly. Also, I forgot to add the heavy cream and it turned out just fine.
7:43 “it serves one” 😂👍🏻
My two favorite ladies, I love any video they do together. I can't wait to make these Millionaire's Shortbread. I've never had Millionaire's and can't wait to try them. Thanks Ladies!
If you're wondering which recipe to follow, this is it. She gives great instructions for each step, the heavy cream is a great addition. I also like to put some flaked sea salt on top before the chocolate cools
Yummy...yummy...give it to me...we just love this
I just made these today 1/2/2021 according to this recipe and they are DELICIOUS. They are not too sweet, which surprised me. I told my spouse ~ sorry, but this recipe only serves one. We loved it. 😋 Thank you so much for sharing this. Happy New Year! 🥂
I like to add orange zest to the caramel- really cuts the sweetness and adds flavor. Also can use maple syrup instead of corn syrup
I tried this recipe and instructions to a T. And they were
PERFECT! Thank you. I'll definitely be making them for holiday treats.
This recipe is amazing, my millionaire shortbread cookies came out perfect and absolutely delicious. I always come to America's test kitchen for the best recipes. Thank you
Such a simple recipe! I can't wait to try this with the kids!
I LOVE this channel!! You guys inspired me to get a “Dutch oven” and now I’m on my way to get a digital thermometer. Your recipes are excellent and I’m happy to entertain and delight friends here in Europe with recipes from home!
You will never regret the Thermopen digital thermometer... never. Then ask for a gram scale. The OXO Goodgrips version is worth every penny as well. I use mine daily to weigh out coffee beans. Now, running off to store for good chocolate and the SCMilk.
Digital thermometers were life changing for me. Still working up to getting a Dutch oven, but an affordable one. It's not something I will use all the time and storage space is minimal in my little kitchen.
This is such a traditional Scottish cake/biscuit ☺️ just reminds me of school ♥️🥰
School dinners shortbread caramel on top of custard, Glasgow Scotland UK
OMGoodness - these bars look fantastic. I'm going to be making them asap!
Man oh man, my mouth was watering watching this. I'm going to try this recipe.
I love the way Julia says "top drawer" at the end! Also I've never noticed this before, but Bridget's WV accent comes out when she says the word "over" as "oover".
Absolutely knock-out recipe. Pretty straightforward instruction throughout and unbelievably delicious results.
I love watching all of you cook thanks for all your hard work
These were some of the best treats that I have ever made. Followed every step and they were perfect.
I followed this recipe exactly and made it twice. The first time I was good and shared it with my work mates. The second time I was not so good and ate the entire thing myself. It's so good. I'm still on a diet.
😂
Hm...i have enough ingredients to make a hundredaire
😭😂😂
I had to buy a shortbread cookie at the Dollar Tree.
Hello. I’ve always loved your recipes. I can’t wait to make this one. I haven’t been able to find your show but now that I have, I’ll be watching all the time. 😊🤗😋
I made this last weekend and it was my first time making this type of dessert and my first time making caramel! I only have a candy thermometer and it seemed to not be working correctly so I went with the softball stage (like I do with fudge) and it was perfect! Side note - if you try and balance a bar on your coffee cup and it falls in, the coffee just adds to making the shortbread tasty!! ;-)
What is the softball stage?
@@wge621 I use room temp or cooler water from the ta. After the caramel starts a good regular bubbling - drop a teaspoon of the caramel into the water - when it goes to the bottom and forms a "blob" that you can pick up - that is what I call softball stage (by watching my momma - back in the day of no fancy thermometers) If it is hard, you have cooked it too long but coming from the Queen of burning everything - that will just make it harden quicker so no harm done.
Brings a tear of joy to my eye
I HAVE LOVED YOUR SHOW FOR DECADES AND LOVED EVERY RECIPE.
Just made this today. It’s sooooo good!!
Love you both and that shortbread makes me drool!
I made for hubby work party. Everyone was so impressed. I shared all about the best cooking show ATK .
Oh my! Caramel is my downfall!!! This is going in my “to try” with my granddaughter who loves to cook! 😍😍😍
I just love this channel!!!
Oh my that looks so delectable and pretty simple. Thank you. Oh yummmmm
Love the shortbread Carmel and chocolate!!! I’m going to make it!! Thank you!!
Wow looks amazing!
Love it! Wonderful to share with my family 😁🎉🎉
I love all your recipes. You ladies Rock.
OMGOODNESS that looks so yummy!!! I love you girls together! Thanks so much for sharing!!
Looks fabulous! Made shortbread a few times over Christmas, but am just discovering this recipe! Will give this a try next! Yum!!!
This looks so good, Im definitely trying this recipe!
I've got to try these! Thanks!
The most dangerous video on the internet
No... this comes in second to the candied bacon! Brown sugar n black pepper pressed on the slices of bacon and bake in the oven!!
Wow my niece made this for us in England and I fell in love,thanks for the recipe
Can’t wait to try. Looks delicious!
Love these recipe videos
Great recipe! Thank you so much. It looks so easy when you do it that I will try it soon.
Single serving - YES!
I love shortbread. Can’t wait to try it. Well done ladies!
That looks amazing!
Looks AMAZING
This looks soooooo yummy!! Need some now!!!
I have to make this ASAP, thanks ladies ❤.
I'm drooling 🤤 😂 thank you. 🙏🏻
Oh wow! Gotta make this!
That looks delicious!
Great dessert to kick off 2022!!
Oh my gosh I think I'm drooling. I cannot wait to make this recipe
i enjoy watching this show
Just made this today and it is delicious! Very rich.
I definitely will be making these. Yum
I did it! Came out wonderfully.
That looks amazing. I bet you could also use a 12 inch cast iron pan as well instead of a 9x13... I personally love cornbread, brownies, shortbread and cookies in a cast iron as it gives it such a beautiful color and even consistency throughout anything I bake.
Need to make this!
Can't wait to make these. Awesome.
Loved it can't wait to make it❤
Why am I watching this at work? Mmm looks good. Thanks.
Looks amazing
That cookie recipe is looking great and I am sitting here watching your show on PBS as there seems to be a marathon due to their fund raising program which probably have been running most of the day. I look forward to watching Cook's Country and seeing what you are are cooking, testing, and trying out each day.
Great recipe. I tried it♥️
I won 2nd place at my church's chili round up making their recipe. I made the best chili recipe too, but I did not win. However, my daughter did and I gave her the chili powder from their recipe! Thank you Bridget and Julia!
Hi, I have made this before although this was the with Aussie ingredients, it was very delicious not a bad slice. Paul
My sister watches your show on PlutoTV and saw this episode then brought these over to go with brunch. I made sure to keep some for breakfast this morning and am watching how they are made while eating it. So delicious!
Made it for Christmas 2022 everyone loved them
You had me at 16 tablespoons of butter.
TO ME, BUTTER EQUALS LOVE❣️ CHEERS FROM CANADA 🇨🇦
Looks delish
These were a hit. I used a silicone spatula to compress the hot shortbread and had no issue with heat transferring
That was the one step I forgot. :(
Awesome treat ❤
Can't wait to try this!
I'm in the process of making this right now. Just have the chocolate layer to do. Wanted to let everyone know the caramel layer was a challenge for me. I couldn't reach the 236 temp without scorching making brown flecks. I did a 2nd time and more careful. Almost the same result. 3rd try temp reached about 222 never stopped stopped stirring and on low fire. Looks awesome. I have no doubt it will be a win!
I saw someone say you can throw the condensed milk (in the can) into boiling water for 3 hours to get perfect caramel. I have not tried it personally yet. It beats stirring my arm off.
I will definitely try this -
Making for christmas and giving away I could keep those yummm
If you think it's too sweet, that's what cups of tea are for. Well, assuming you don't have sugar in that also.
Whoa... True. 🤯
Awesome!
Going to try this
Omg! The best yummy, thank you
I have to make this for Christmas !
I've Ted to try this for a long time I think its time looks so good thanks😂❤
I made this for a friend and her brother came back the next day looking for them lol
Ohhh so good looking.
Looks so good. I'm nervous about doing both the caramel and chocolate layers, but it'll be fun to try. Going to make sure I stir the caramel constantly and go super gently in my weakest microwave for the chocolate.
I want a piece of that kit kat bar. Lol thats yummy i want some.
Hello I watch all the time and really glad to see you on utube
I made about 4 batches of these last Christmas. Amazing recipe. The caramel layer takes while to cook but other than that it’s pretty quick.
You can really skip the caramel layer if your willing to pay a little more money for the variation brand dulce de leche it's sold in a can beside the sweetened condensed milk in most Wal-Mart stores. It will take three cans. It's basically the caramel recipe already made and tastes almost identical
Hi Josh, can you freeze these, I see you made a big batch?!
@@tylerhughes5420 Do you mean "Carnation" brand?
@@t.martin3179 carnation and eaglebrand both I believe have dulce de leche but either one is great. You can make your own dulce de leche by simmering a can of sweetened condensed milk in the can in a pot of water for 6 hours.
Tyler Hughes ain’t nobody got time for that.
Beautiful
*I can't wait to make this*
Thanks for the tips. My daughter wants this for her birthday.
Loves the test kitchen
Definitely making these tonight. I might add a tad bit more chocolate 😉
These remind me of my Granny, who was a cook in 20th Century Glasgow! I must make them!
