Karen's Smores Millionaire's Shortbread

Join the brilliant Karen Wright (GBBO Star, series 9) live from Wakefield, UK as she guides you through her recipe for Smores Millionaire Shortbread.

This is where a Smores meets a Millionaire, a fun and delicious bake. The biscuit base includes some Wholemeal flour, salt and cinnamon bringing the Graham cracker taste. The caramel is salty and golden, whilst the marshmallow layer is fluffy and sweet and VEGETARIAN! The dark chocolate topping is swirled with white and for the artistic amongst the bakers can be splashed with edible paint and dusted with glitter for a Jackson Pollock style decoration! 

We’ll start off the class with an introductory welcome and some background from Karen's time on TV, before we ask you to put on your aprons and bake along as you watch Karen demonstrate all the skills required to make these delicious treats.

Our class will take around 2 hours 30 minutes as we bake our little masterpieces, before you can tuck into the fruits of your labour all whilst hearing fantastic memories and stories from Karen.
