Gluten free Millionaires Shortbread. Our gluten-free millionaire's shortbread recipe contains a gluten-free shortbread base topped with a generous layer of caramel followed by delicious dark chocolate. This has been highly requested for a very long time, but my gluten free Millionaire's shortbread recipe is here and here to stay. I thought making my own caramel would be really tricky, but it was actually really easy and so much nicer than caramel you'd buy in a tin. I'm about to make a bold claim: this gluten free millionaire's shortbread recipe is probably the greatest recipe I have ever made. Big words, I know, but with a crumbly and buttery shortbread, thick gooey caramel and a deliciously sweet layer of chocolate, these gluten free millionaire's shortbreads are pretty bang on perfect.

I like to think of them as a clean eating and healthier version of twix bars! These are very rich so one small square will be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. Millionaire Shortbread (also known as Caramel Slice) used to be a big favourite of mine, so I was keen to recreate a vegan and gluten-free version! It did take quite a bit of testing, but I found the best result was to use a shortbread base inspired by my Shortbread Cookies recipe and a caramel layer loosely inspired by my Fudge recipe.

No Bake Millionaire's Shortbread Recipe Notes: This no bake gluten-free dessert definitely could be made with a gluten cookie layer instead. The main thing I've learned in my years of converting gluten recipes to gluten-free though, is that the absorbency of ground gluten-free cookies is very different than gluten cookie crumbs. You will love the buttery coconut flour shortbread base, soft peanut butter caramel topped with a crunchy chocolate layer. Butter is an essential ingredient in these cookies. Made with a dairy-free fat, I don't think shortbread cookies are worth the time or the calories.
