Scottish Shortbread

Don’t forget to add a little bit of salt!

Easy to make and they go great with a cup of tea.

Followed recipe and thought it was good. Was nervous about using brown sugar as that is not the standard recipe, but wanted to give this a go. Seems like some gave low ratings simply because it didn't taste like 'traditional shortbread'. Traditional is simply 2 c flour, 1 c butter, 1/2 c castor. That's it, so it's nice to try a variation sometimes. And there's a million different varieties (icing sugar, corn starch, white sugar, etc.). I'd make these again and didn't find them bland at all (no different than other shortbreads). I pressed into a quiche pan, poked with fork to make pattern and sliced into triangles and they looked pretty.

I have made three tImes with variations, very good and simple recipe..using my kitchaid made a big difference in the texture. A forever recipe to keep.

I am so happy! I followed the recipe exactly and I love these cookies. Thank you for sharing your recipe!!!
