    OH.MY.GOODNESS!!!! I made 2 pans of these today. I will admit that whisking each batch of caramel for about 25 minutes each was wicked because of arthritis. But...was worth every swish!! Came out looking exactly like your photos!!! I'm overwhelmed.
    EDIT..Is very dangerous now because I just learned how INCREDIBLY EASY it is to make shortbread! YIKES!!

    Made these this weekend and my son has just had one. His reaction “oh my god mum these are the best things I’ve tasted in like ages”
    So I think they went down well.

    Warning ⚠️
    When making the caramel mine turned out really watery don’t be alarmed this is normal after 20mins of constantly stirring it will turn out thicker and more caramelised
    Hope this helped!!💖

    • @UmBungo
      @UmBungo Před 4 lety +10

      It’s a traditional Scottish biscuit, and yes, it was named after milionaire’s for its richness AND to kind of elevate it as a luxury saved for special occasions. Scotland was once very poor, especially after the failed Darien Scheme which ultimately led to the Act of the Union (1707) and the birth of what we now know as the UK, and looking at photos of the Glasgow slums that existed right up until WW2 and lesser so until 1960, coupled with how life and the world changed during the industrial revolution and days of the Empire, according to literature and accounts of the times.
      Sorry, I’m just stoned and Scottish and full of lots of such information. 🤷‍♂️🤣
