Indulge in the ultimate holiday treat with our Billionaire’s Latte - a coffee drink inspired by the decadent layers of millionaire’s shortbread.
This luxurious drink combines the velvety richness of a classic latte with a luscious caramel layer, chocolate, and a sprinkle of crumbly biscuit for the perfect finishing touch.
Perfect for warming up during the chilly season or impressing guests at your holiday gatherings, this latte is a drinkable dessert that truly feels like a billion-dollar experience.
I love flavoured coffees, especially during the colder seasons like this Starbucks Pistachio Latte and Eggnog Latte.
Ingredients notes
Espresso - you can either brew a strong coffee with instant coffee or use an espresso machine.
Milk - whole milk is super creamy but any milk works.
Caramel - you can use caramel, dulche de leche or caramel sauce
Chocolate - dark, milk or white chocolate works.
Shortbread - you need shortbread, or biscuit of choice that has been crumbled to top the latte with.
Optional whipped cream

That layer of silky caramel sitting underneath the chocolate and hot espresso with frothed milk poured over and shortbread crumbs scattered on top is such a brilliant combination and honestly this is SO GOOD, it tastes every bit as indulgent as the Costa version but you can make it at home in under five minutes for a fraction of the price.
