A deliciously soft and chewy flapjack topped with a homemade caramel and swirled chocolate – this millionaires flapjack is scrumptious!<\/h2>\n

Millionaires<\/h3>\n

As we all know, I am quite the fan of a millionaires shortbread. I have made and eaten countless of these over the years, and I really do not get bored of them. I do think a homemade one is the best of the best, but even the little bite versions you can buy at a supermarket get me every time.<\/p>\n

I have my classic millionaires shortbread recipe as part of my back to basics series, and I love it. I have variations for occasions such as chocolate orange millionaires, or even my mini egg millionaires for easter, and I just can\u2019t get enough of them.<\/p>\n

A buttery delicious shortbread, topped with a homemade caramel, topped with chocolate. You can make it as basic as you want, but it\u2019s still tasty. I would ALWAYS recommend making your own caramel as well, because a tinned\/jar version simply does not set, and it tastes a lot more sickly in a bake like this.<\/p>\n

Millionaires flapjacks<\/h3>\n

Years ago I went to one of my local favourite tea rooms, and they had a millionaires flapjack recipe. This is just something that blew my mind in the moment as I just hadn\u2019t considered using another base at the time. This bake is why I wrote this recipe, as it gave me so many more ideas.<\/p>\n

I have since done other versions with different bases as well, such as my millionaires cookie bars, millionaires brownies and millionaires blondies. Basically, any traybake you can think of, topped with caramel and some chocolate and I am extremely interested.<\/p>\n

The texture of a flapjack for me is chewy, tasty but not so rock solid it breaks your teeth. You can add other ingredients if you want to a flapjack, but for these to make sure it all works together I went for quite a simple flapjack.<\/p>\n

Flapjacks<\/h3>\n

Flapjacks appear to be one of those bakes, that sometimes just don\u2019t work for people. They are an extremely simple mix of ingredients, but the ingredients that you end up using are quite important. I have simplified this recipe as much as I can to make it as accessible as I can.<\/p>\n
