Title: My grans famous short bread
Post by: ~[fruity]~ on December 20, 2012, 10:20:58 am
initally as a 2 4 6 recipe but so much better doubled


so.....
4 oz sugar (120g)
8 oz butter (240 g)
12 oz good (360g ++ ) plain flour

Throw all in TMX, turbo until fine bread crumbs. Divide into 3 paper lined small round tins, firm down, finger press the edges decoratively, score into 8 pieces, prick with a fork and bake approx 30 minutes in 160o oven or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with extra castor sugar once removed from the oven.

It is delicious with chopped glace cherries, for a festive change. And / or the ends dipped in melted white choc.  Yummm shortbread.
