      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

    Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees.

    Place measuring cup in lid.

    Mix all ingredients for 20 seconds on speed 6.

    Scrape down sides of bowl.

    Then knead for further 25 seconds.

    Tip ingredients out into a greased baking dish - I like a rectangle glass tray.

    Pat mixture down really well until firm and smooth.

    Cut mix into small squares or fingers (whatever you prefer).

    Stab each section a couple times with a fork so mix can cook evenly.

    Lightly sprinkle with sugar if desired.

    place in oven and bake for 30 - 40 minutes for a soft shortbread or 45 minutes for a crunchier result.

    After cooked, take your shortbread out of the oven and let cook in the pan.

    Once cooled to the touch, recut over your already cut lines whilst still just warm so you do not break your shortbread when fully cooled, this will make removing your shortbread from the dish much easier.

    let your shortbread cool for several hours before removing from the dish, make sure it is totally cold before storage or it will sweat and spoil.

    enjoy...

Tip

For fan forced ovens check shortbread after 25 minutes.  Your shortbread should be a light golden brown on the bottom and should not have any colouring on top otherwise it will be overcooked.  For a crunchier shorbread let the bottom colour change to a very light brown, anything more and your shortbread will be burnt.
