I have just made this receipe and they are delicious and a hit with the family. Thanks
This mixture is exactly as my grandmother (Scottish) and mother made it. Turned out beautifully.
The only difference was that in our house, we had to cook the shortbread in a whole round. We weren't allowed to cut the shortbread - had to break it (maybe an old Christian tradition).
I made 2 whole rounds pressed into 2 x 8" tins (uncut but marked decoratively with a fork). They took 20 mins to cook perfectly. I turned the remainder into a roll and cut individual shortbreads. The individual shortbreads, cooked on a flat tray, were cooked in 12 mins. (160C Fan Forced)
Thank you thermie and Lyn.
Very Yummy!
but only need 1/2 cooking time ⭐️😃
