  • Author: amelia
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 6 mini dessert cups 1x

Description

Treat yourself to luxury in every spoonful with these Mini Millionaire’s Dessert Cups! They combine a buttery cookie base, luscious caramel, and a silky chocolate topping—layered beautifully in individual cups. Quick, no-bake, and indulgent!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup crushed shortbread cookies

  • 1/4 cup melted butter

  • 1/2 cup store-bought caramel sauce

  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

  • Pinch of sea salt (optional, for topping)

  • 6 small serving cups


Instructions

  • Make the base: Mix crushed shortbread cookies with melted butter. Divide evenly among serving cups and press gently to form the base.

  • Add caramel: Spoon a layer of caramel sauce over each cookie base. Smooth the surface with a spoon.

  • Make the ganache: Heat heavy cream until warm, then pour over chocolate chips. Let sit for a minute, then stir until smooth.

  • Top with chocolate: Pour the chocolate ganache over the caramel layer in each cup.

  • Chill briefly: Pop in the fridge for 5–10 minutes to set slightly, or enjoy immediately for a gooier texture.

  • Garnish (optional): Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt for that classic millionaire’s shortbread flair.

Notes

  • Use dulce de leche for a thicker, richer caramel layer.

  • Add crushed nuts or gold sprinkles on top for an extra fancy touch.

  • Can be made up to 1 day in advance—just store chilled and serve cold or at room temperature.
