##  Scrumptious Millionaire Shortbread 

 

Millionaire’s shortbread with a Terry’s Chocolate Orange topping surely must be a level or two up – trillionaire’s shortbread? Just remember to use rice flour – it gives the shortbread its unique crunch beneath the luscious Chocolate Orange topping.



Serves

 16 

 



Total Time

 1 Hour 15 Minutes 

 



 

 

Ingredients

 For the shortbread base  


   200g of plain flour, plus extra for dusting  

   100g of rice flour  

   100g of caster sugar  

   200g of butter, diced, plus extra for greasing  

   60g of milk or dark Terry’s Chocolate Orange segments, chopped  

 



  

 For the caramel layer  


   175g of butter  

   175g of sugar  

   4 tbsp of golden syrup  

   400ml of condensed milk  

   ½ tsp salt  

 



  

 For the chocolate topping:  


   200g milk or dark Terry’s Chocolate Orange segments  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C Fan/Gas Mark 4. Lightly butter a 20cm square cake tin.



 Step 2 

Mix the flour, rice flour and sugar together in a large bowl. Add the butter and rub together until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Mix in the chopped chocolate and use your hands to bring it together. Tip on to a lightly floured work surface and knead the mixture briefly with your hands to form a ball of dough.



 Step 3 

Transfer to the prepared tin and press the mixture down firmly, levelling the top. Prick several times with a fork and then bake in the oven for 20-–25 minutes, or until pale golden.



 Step 4 

Set aside to cool in the tin while you make the caramel layer.



 Step 5 

Put all the caramel ingredients into a large pan and set over a low heat. Stir gently until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium so it starts to simmer and cook for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally to stop it sticking and catching, until it turns golden and thickens to a soft fudge-like consistency.



 Step 6 

Pour the caramel mixture over the top of the shortbread and level the top with a palette knife. Set aside for 1 hour or until it sets.



 Step 7 

Meanwhile, make the Terry’s Chocolate Orange topping. Melt the chocolate, then pour it over the set caramel.



 Step 8 

Leave in a cool place until the chocolate sets and then cut into squares. This will keep well in an airtight container for up to a week.



 Step 9 

For an extra-special topping, sprinkle the chocolate layer with chopped walnuts, candied orange peel or ginger, or add a teaspoon of salt to the middle layer for a wonderful salted caramel surprise.

##  Viennese Fingers 

 

Buttery biscuit perfection, ideal for polishing off alongside your morning coffee or afternoon tea. So easy to bake, they look fancy as anything – if you can bear to share.



Serves

 30 

 



Total Time

 1 Hour 10 Minutes 

 



 

 

Ingredients

    100g of butter, softened  

   25g of icing sugar  

   100g of plain flour, sifted  

   ½ tsp of baking powder  

   1 tsp of cornflour  

   1 tsp of vanilla extract  

   200g of milk Terry’s Chocolate Orange segments, roughly chopped  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Line 2 baking trays with baking parchment.



 Step 2 

In a food mixer, or using a hand-held electric whisk, beat the butter and icing sugar together until pale and fluffy. Beat in the flour, baking powder, cornflour and vanilla extract.



 Step 3 

Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large star-shaped nozzle and pipe 30 x 6cm ‘fingers’ on to the lined baking trays. Don’t pipe them too close together – leave some space around each one as they’ll spread slightly in the oven. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.



 Step 4 

Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C Fan/Gas Mark 4.



 Step 5 

Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until cooked and pale golden. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.



 Step 6 

Once the biscuits are completely cool, melt the Milk Terry’s Chocolate Orange segments.



 Step 7 

Dip one end of each Viennese finger into the melted chocolate and place on some clean baking parchment. Leave to set fully and then store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

##  Bread &amp; Butter Chocolate Orange Pudding 

 

Comfort food at its best is like a warm hug, just what you need on a cold winter’s day. Adding Terry’s Chocolate Orange to the creamy custard in this pudding turns it into the ultimate comfort food.



Serves

 30 

 



Total Time

 1 Hour 10 Minutes 

 



 

 

Ingredients

    40g of butter, softened, plus extra for greasing  

   6 medium slices of white bread  

   75g of raisins or sultanas  

   3 medium free-range eggs  

   50g of caster sugar  

   450ml of milk (or use half milk and half cream)  

   Grated zest of 1 orange  

   75g of dark Terry’s Chocolate Orange segments  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Lightly butter a 1-litre baking dish.



 Step 2 

Butter the bread and cut each slice into triangles. Arrange them, buttered side up and overlapping, in the baking dish. Scatter the raisins or sultanas between them and over the top.



 Step 3 

In a bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until well blended. Put the milk or milk and cream with the orange zest in a pan and bring to the boil. Pour it over the egg and sugar mixture, stirring until smooth and custard-like.



 Step 4 

Melt the Terry’s Chocolate Orange segments, then mix into the custard. Pour over the bread and leave to soak for 10-15 minutes before baking. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C Fan/Gas Mark 4.



 Step 5 

Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chocolate custard is set but still a little bit wobbly. Serve hot with cream, crème fraîche or ice-cream.



 Step 6 

Try this: For a touch of luxury, use sliced brioche or panettone instead of bread, and drizzle melted chocolate across the baked pudding.
