Keto (high fat & protein) Millionaires Shortbread Recipe

Ingredients

Shortbread base:

250g salted butter

170g milk powder

4 tbsp. clean beef protein powder (chocolate flavour)

Caramel layer:

130g salted butter

50g monk fruit powder

250g of mascarpone (1x pot)

Chocolate topping:

250g of mascarpone (1x pot)

50g monk fruit powder

85g cacao powder

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/8 tsp. sea salt

Instructions

Place base butter into a large saucepan and bring to the boil. Stire regularly and bring to the boil for 3 mins or until brown flecks start to appear.
Turn down to a low simmer and add milk powder and beef protein powder and use an electric whisk to stir constantly, making sure nothing sticks to the bottom.
Turn doughy mixture into a lined, casserole dish and allow to cool, once cool place in the fridge (I did this the day before making the next layer).
Get all your caramel ingredients at the ready!
Add butter to a saucepan and bring to the boil again until you have brown flecks.
Add monk fruit and use an electric whisk to whisk immediately otherwise it will clump and/or stick to the bottom.
Add mascarpone and whisk until it resembles caramel (if it separates add a little more mascarpone until it looks like caramel when whisked).
Allow to cool and then pour over your biscuit base. Once cooled again add to the fridge and leave there for a couple of hours to set.
Add mascarpone for the chocolate layer into a saucepan and heat on low, stirring constantly to become smooth. Add monk fruit and whisk with electric whisk. Add vanilla extract and salt.
When thoroughly mixed add cacao a little at a time until smooth.
Pour on top of the caramel and place in fridge to set.
Cut into squares and freeze until you want to eat them and then remove from the freezer an hour before hand.
