The Young Lions had already defeated last year's finalists Manchester City in the previous round and had their eyes on another scalp straight from the kick off when Greg Palmer and David Amoo announced their intent with a couple of early chances.
But it was Joe O'Rourke who stole the headlines when he stole in to score the only goal of the game in the 52nd minute and despite Everton's late pressure, the youngsters held on to record another victory.
They now face Newcastle United in the next round.
Millwall: Crowther, Sim, Ebsworth, Fuseini, Payne, Read, Noone, O'Rourke, Amoo, Palmer, Obersteller
Subs: Kilby, Lisney, Jeffreys, Noel, Keen
