A Wellington square, also known as millionaire shortbread, is believed to have originated in Scotland – the ‘millionaire’ prefix implying an upgrade and level of decadence. Shortbread originated around the 12th Century but the biscuit we know now is attributed to Mary Queen of Scots in the 16th Century.
