The makers of Kerrygold take great pride in the fact that they use only the milk from grass-fed Irish cows to make their delicious butter, meaning it is 100% natural.

It is also the perfect butter to use in baking, for both sweet and savoury dishes.

Irish TV chef Donal Skehan (who was once part of a pop band that supported the Pussycat Dolls) has created a YouTube video demonstrating how to make the delicious Millionaire Chocolate Squares using Kerrygold butter.

The treats look absolutely mouth-watering and are so easy to make that anyone can try at home.

As Donal says in the video, they are one of the most irresistible sweet treats known to mankind!

The squares are perfect for homebaking, whether you are a beginner or expert. Follow Donal’s directions in the video and you can’t go wrong.

Then surprise your family, friends or colleagues with the delicious snacks that are sure to have people coming back for more.
