However it was still delicious and only my first attempt and will most definitely be trying again. Reply This is NOT the original Scottish recipe. This is the only 'Millionaire's Shortbread' recipe I have ever seen that calls for a 'cookie' crust. This is not traditional 'Millionaire's Shortbread', because it is not made with traditional shortbread. If you like Scottish shortbread, and you like caramel and chocolate, then Millionaire's Shortbread is about as close to heaven as you can get!
