ABOUT Nutty Caramel Shortbread RECIPE

Buttery shortbread crust layered with thick, rich caramel and topped with cashew nuts. This particular caramel is raw and naturally-sweetened, made with fiber-rich dates(secret ingrediant) instead of sugar, butter and corn syrup. This delicious dessert - perfectly pretty for Christmas and New year parties.
