Special shortbread
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.

A delicious twist to traditional pastry, these shortbread mince pies are deceptively easy to make. I am not a baker and will always prefer savory to sweet... BUT this shortbread pie crust with mincemeat filling is hard to resist! This is a new recipe for me this year and judging by my family's reaction, it will be a firm favorite for the future 😀 #nikicuisineRecipe source: BBC Good Food

Shortbread Biscuits Dedicated to Yoshida Shortbread Biscuits Dedicated to Yoshida
My friend Yoshida asked me to make amazing shortbread that tastes just like the Walker's brand. I was able to make something that approached his expectations, but was limited by the butter I used and was troubled by the fact that I couldn't improve it further with the ingredients I had on hand. I wonder if these would turn out better if I used the butter they have over in Scotland.Try to use caster sugar. You can use either salted or unsalted butter. Please remember to reduce the amount of salt by a pinch when using salted butter. Using cultured butter will improve the flavor. These shortbread fingers are also delicious when made with whole wheat flour. Recipe by Yukiline -
