Thorntons 9 Mini Caramel Shortcake Bites

Product Information

Shortcakes are typically high in syns due to the extra butter and sugar inside of the pastry, however, you can always make your own with sweetener instead and low-fat butter which we will explore later. Popular Thornton's Treats Syn Values Toblerone cheesecake - equally sinful and rich as the Millionaire's cheesecake (just with more chocolate)

For fans of Twix bars—shortbread bars layered up with caramel and coated in chocolate—this millionaire shortbread was made for you! This chocolate dessert can be sliced up into any size you prefer, making it the perfect bake sale treat, homemade holiday food gift, or unique addition to a Christmas cookie plate. Once the cream is scalding (starting to steam and show tiny little bubbles on the surface), remove from the heat and pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate.Despite looking a little more gruesome than your average millionaire’s shortbread, this Halloween version is still as indulgent and delicious. The biscuit base is slightly crumbly and offers the perfect bed for the caramel, which is blood red and so gooey. Then the top is white chocolate instead of milk, giving the perfect canvas for a smattering of blood patterns. It’s the perfect combination of horror and hands-down scrumptiousness! When the ganache has set you can remove the cheesecake from the baking tin. Whip the double cream to soft peaks and put it into a piping bag fitted with an open star nozzle.

Shortbreads are incredibly easy to make because it just calls for the creaming of the butter and sugar then mixing in the flour until a dough forms. I used two ingredients for the chocolate ganache: dark chocolate and double cream. I know some people are put off by making ganache - probably thanks to its complicated-sounding name, but it's really easy.If you want to, remove the cheesecake from the base of the cheesecake pan and transfer it to a serving plate.
