PS- would you consider posting on the screen both the baking temps in both C* and F* for those of us in the US?

[@AnnetteSaunders-ck6rh]

Hi Jemma I came to London today and I came into crumbs and doiles. I brought a birthday cake batter cupcake and a chocolate chip cookie and OMG they were amazing!!!! It was a shame you weren’t in today but all I’m saying is that if you can come into London and go to crumbs and doilies it is definitely worth it!!!

[@CupcakeJemma]

Ahh thanks so much for stopping by! Hopefully next time we'll be able to meet!

[@sammy_xx5533]

Can you use some other chocolate to go on top instead of caramelised chocolate?❤️by the way love the recipe

[@nougeneral]

this loooooooooks delicious !!!!!! any topping suggestions other than Caramelised White Chocolate???

[@CupcakeJemma]

You could use a dark/milk chocolate ganache instead of caramelised chocolate - either would taste delicious with this recipe!

[@MM-lc9tp]

Raspberry jam!

[@FarahBabu]

This recipe is absolutely amazing. Do you use a convection oven for baking your cakes or cupcakes ? I am planning on buying one and trying to understand which is better for baking.

[@rhondagarron7699]

Yummy !!!

[@deborahwood4728]

Ow yum. I understand if u stop talking and start eating. Heck my mouth is watering. I love cupcake jemma language " crumbidge" small crumbs of dough" (Jemma) "Rumble" big chunks of dough (Dane- megacookies) "Suffle" sift I hear those words in my head when I'm baking 😂😂😂😂 Can't wait each Thursday for ur video

[@stormygayle9388]

I’ll try your recipe for sure., but goodness me.. where did I get that blouse?? I want one!!

[@jemimaj20]

Can you use double cream instead of cocoa butter ? I am guessing it is only use due to not being as “set” as normal chocolate

[@CupcakeJemma]

You can - we'd actually recommend using a flavourless oil rather than cream with caramelised chocolate

[@jemimaj20]

@@CupcakeJemma thank you for your reply. Need to make them now! Love millionaires in any form😀

[@blinkgirl119]

Can you skip on the cocoa butter? I don’t think it was in the “how to” video, and not sure how easy it is to buy?

[@CupcakeJemma]

You can skip it - it'll make the chocolate easier to cut. If you're struggling to find it, you can always stir through 1 tbsp of flavourless oil instead 👌🏼

[@mmilhem4833]

Oh my god thanks jemma for your support 🇵🇸🇵🇸 I really love your recipes ❤

[@natalieford6960]

Can I request crossaint NY cookies. They look amazing! Love your recipes.

[@CupcakeJemma]

Yes you can! 😍

[@selmahosni9744]

Yum yum 😋

[@ceycey6037]

I just made this and my one tip: make sure the cream isn’t too cold because your caramel will immediately become crystallized😅

[@Rik77]

Good tip thanks. the caramel should eventually melt back in after a little while of heating mind you.

[@ceycey6037]

@@Rik77 yes true but some crystals can’t dissolve. I had to use an immersion blender to smooth it out 😅

[@ceycey6037]

The maximum amount of fat in cream in my country is 35%. Should I add more butter into the caramel or will it be fine if I keep the quantities the same as the recipe?

[@CupcakeJemma]

It should be ok 👌🏼

[@hinakhodiyara7883]

OMG! This is the Mother of all Millionaire Shortbreads', sorry Billionaire Shortbreads :)

[@ElpidaPasadaki]

could we recplace the topping with something else? incase we dont have the cocoa butter to use

[@CupcakeJemma]

You could still use the same topping but leave the cocoa butter out if you can't get ahold of it - you can always add 1 tbsp of flavourless oil to keep the chocolate pliable (to prevent it cracking when you cut into it).

[@Amanda-Dudley]

​@@CupcakeJemma Hi where is the link for the white chocolate topping? I can't find it and would love to make this exact recipe 😊

[@cakescupcakes6703]

Could you please make custard and almond log recipe

[@CupcakeJemma]

I've never heard of this 👀 tell me more!

[@joyyycey]

Is there a recommended substitute for double cream in the caramel?

[@CupcakeJemma]

We'd recommend any sort of heavy cream - it's kinda make or break for this caramel.

[@christinemoore7704]

I usually make millionaires caramel with condensed milk I will definitely try this one ❤

[@CupcakeJemma]

Ooh yes I think it traditionally is that variation - but THIS caramel is SO👏🏽GOOD👏🏽

[@cd4536]

Your trillionairs shortbread is the best. How come you don't use the rice flour in this one? I just used that recipe to make chocolate peanut butter shortbread.

[@CupcakeJemma]

We don't often bake with rice flour, but you totally could do in this recipe 😘

[@moemousa]

OMG these look amazeballs! I am going to make me some right away. Plus I can now finally use my newly bought bulldog clips. Also, loving your blouse! I see ya girl 😍🍉✌️
