I once worked in a restaurant and they made the shortcrust pastry for the quiche with icing sugar in - seemingly it makes quite a difference.

As soon as Ive been to the supermarket to get some cornflour (I forgot last week and I get through loads of the stuff) Im going to make this recipe. I just adore shortbread. I often bake typically british things and take them to our local boulangerie/patisserie for the baker and his wife to try. Ill do that with the shortbread. Theyve had mince pies, fruit buns and scotch eggs so far. Ill do them a box of shortbread to go with their Xmas card.

Yummy in my tummy  :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:


I told OH we needed to test them so he puts 8 on a plate - and I only manage to have 2 of them cos he snaffles the rest in lightening quick time!!!!


Don't think we need to bother with the info on how to keep them fresh  :innocent:

Yup, made them and they were really amazing, kids loved them too, except I have in the back of my mind how much butter is in there which spoils the pleasure a bit.  Possibly justify it by having just 1 with a cup of tea instead of 2 chocolate digestives  ;)

well i find a single batch makes me 16 wedges (i do mine in a large round tin) and a wedge happens to be perfect with a cuppa problem is i drink a lot of tea!!!


i just think of the butter as bonus fuel :-)
