Cooking Instructions

60 minutes
  1. 1

    Put all the ingredients in a bowl and work the mixture with your hands until you have a smooth, pliable dough. Depending on the type of flour you use, you may have to add a little more to absorb any excess moisture.

  2. 2

    The dough is ready to use when it no longer sticks to your hands. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave to rest for a couple of hours.

  3. 3

    Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and, using a rolling pin, roll it to a thickness of around 1 cm. Choose some Christmas-themed cookie cutters and get cutting!

  4. 4

    Arrange the shortbreads on an oven tray and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180ºC for 25 minutes.

  5. 5

    Once cooked and before they get cold, cover them in caster sugar.

  6. 6

    Alternatively you can sprinkle them with icing sugar and cocoa powder.
