Shortbread is traditionally made with one part sugar two parts butter and three parts flour. A suggestion might be to chill slightly before trying to roll it. Another suggestion is to substitute 1 4 cup of rice flour or cornstarch for the all purpose flour. This is an excellent basic shortbread recipe and i have been making shortbread for many many yrs. These cookies are called shortbread because the term short is used to describe cookies and pastries with a tender crumbly melt in your mouth texture.
These wonderful shortbread cookies are rich and buttery and have a subtle lemon flavour. A simple classic shortbread cookie recipe is great to be able to pull out when you need it whether you are making strawberry shortcake dip or just want a few lemony cookies to have with your coffee. Buttery and tender shortbread cookies have a delicate crispness to them a light airiness that s detectable as the crumb crumbles with that first bite. With a crunchy exterior while remaining tender inside. This is not a recipe for the traditional shortbread biscuit but rather my take on a shortbread cookie.
