Grandma's Shortbread
Tip
If you use Gluten Free flour, it makes an even lighter, shorter Shortbread. And I thought I couldn't improve on this recipe. I made this recently for my Gluten free friend and really enjoyed how yummy it was. Try it!!! You won't be disappointed.

Made these today, and they were amazing! Popped the dough in the fridge for 20 mins, then made shapes with cookie cutters and stuck smarties on the top. 19 mins later, we had delicious "dotti cookies" that tasted even better than the ones you buy from cafes. Thankyou for a wonderful, super eady recipe

Hi Shelby,...
Hi Shelby,
Made this last night for Christmas presents. The dough was soooo soft but may have been becaue of the heat in Sydney at the moment. I wanted to make stars but there was no way that was going to happen even after refrigerating. So I made the log and followed your instructions. Mine look no way near as nice as yours, but I don't usually bake. The taste and texture is amazing! Thanks so much!

I saw good comments on a FB page and had to make it. It is absolutely the best shortbread I have ever made. Would be great for festive shortbread as is, or adding pistaschios and cranberries for a Christmas gift, or dipping one end in chocolate for gift giving. Will be my only recipe from now on, thankyou! And, of course, so quick and easy to make, always a bonus.
