Classic Shortbread
Thursday 27 September 2012
Shortbread is such a classic Christmas or tea time biscuit here in England. Every Christmas, we would always receive a huge tin of yummy buttery Scottish shortbread as presents from family friends. Yet, you only need the most basic ingredients in your kitchen cupboard and they are so easy to make, you can whip these out in an hour!
Ingredients:
Method:
Make sure not to overwork the dough and handle it as short as possible if you are using your hands. This is because the butter may melt and turn oily with the heat of your fingers if handled for too long. Also, the first time I made these, I sliced them in this triangular shape. The second time, I cut them into squares before baking. I realised it is probably much better in square form so they are not too big and are a perfect bite size.
