For years I often made easy shortbread biscuits for family and friends. Recently I learned this richer, more crisp recipe.The cornflour seems to make the difference. The first time I tried it I was really pleased but the aecond time it broke easily. The important I think is the heat of the oven and careful timing.

Cooking for family and friends has always been enjoyably important. I love my daughters' cooking and we all know fresh food is best. Am now learning to prepare interesting food for one as well.
