I’m Scottish, and I can confirm this is the recipe I was taught in the 1970s. It also used to be called 2-4-6 shortbread, 2oz sugar, 4oz butter and 6oz flour.
That's exactly right, In the bakery business we called it the 1,2,3, formula. Back then we used the old pounds and ounces and our recipe was 1lb sugar, 2lb butter and 3lb flour. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment, I appreciate that.

Thank you both for confirming ratios this makes it easier to adjust recipe for any size 👍 I'm looking forward to trying this as I just paid about £3 for a small box of Walker's here in California but boy they were good !!!
@@capodad2u I hope you find these equally as good. Do let me know please.
I’ll be trying these tomorrow. I just put out my butter tonight. Happy to hear it’s an authentic recipe!
It’s an awesome recipe, made it twice already!
I love how humble this man is
God bless him

WHAT IS HUMILITY WHEN IT COMES TO MAKING SHORTBREAD?
@@wesleygordon1645 , sorry for you if you are not able to see it . It has nothing to do with " making shortbread " , he could also be frying sardines . It is his personality, his character, his aura that show the humility and kindness of this man through his voice , intonation and way of speaking .
Finally a cook who isn't full of frills and flounces. I enjoyed this episode.
MAN created god...
Terribly sad to hear of Mr. Paul’s passing. I will always think of him while making these for friends and family
Oh no!😢
Rest in peace Mr Paul
😮 .. RIP Mr Paul 🙏.. thanks for the amazing recipes you taught 🙏 👌
Missing you,,, you will always be remembered...
What happened to Paul ?
he is back
I saw his display picture and I thought to myself "I can trust this man". Never am I buying store products again!!! Thank you sir. NIGERIANS let's gather here for a selfie 😁😁😁
Hey girl!!!
Yes oh!! It looks like the real deal :-D
Can one use margarine instead of butter?
@@udogwumaryjane9811 Butter is best to use for a lot of recipes but you know, you can try Margarine too. It may turn out just fine.
Hiiiiiiiii
this old man’s so sweet🥺
he said he didn’t know what the description box was called but we could just click ‘see more’🥺🥺🥺 God bless his heart
I’ve baked probably hundreds of batches of cookies in my life and these are hilariously the absolute best ones I’ve ever made. I used to love watching these videos rest in peace Mr Paul I will never forget you as long as these cookies exist ❤
My brother and I made these for our family’s Christmas cookie competition last year, and my mom declared us the winners! I’ll be making these for my neighbors this year!
I'm Nigerian and seeing the recipe and the simplicity of ingredients, I gave the recipe a try. Loved it and people that tasted also gave it a big thumb. It will be a good addition to small chops, that we make for parties, in my country. I added liquid milk flavour to my butter before mixing the ingredients and loved the overall milky smell at the end. Thank you Mr Paul for a simple, straight forward recipe/video.
Hi
Did you use actual butter or margarine?
I'm Nigerian too and I want to use butter but it's so expensive
Hi edima, I used margarine. I have tried it with 3 different brands now, quite good. Advice u dont add salt, cuz the salt in the margarine seems to serve. TRY IT WITH AND WITHOUT PINCH OF SALT AND LETS KNOW. HAPPY BAKING
@@edimadennis4055
Just finished making these. The recipe was so simple and the outcome is simply delicious. Never ever going to buy store ones again. Thank you and much love from Uganda 🇺🇬

Life’s too short...eat the shortbread 🥰🥰
Your shortbread recipe was fabulous. I’m from Glasgow and I haven’t made shortbread for about 30yrs. I tried your recipe today and it turned out exactly the way mine tasted all those years ago. Thank you. I’m now using your recipe to make it for my granddaughters who are just over 3 yrs old and they love it. Thank you again
Hi Elizabeth, Thank you for your kind words, your feedback is very much appreciated, especially from someone who knows about a good shortbread. For more of my recipes go to my website at : mr-pauls-pantry.com/
I'm from Canada, I also made shortbread cookies about 35 yrs ago for high school baking class. Tasted delicious still.
How long did it take
Vvvv Yemen racipe ❤ I from Pakistan
I couldn’t sleep last night so at 4am I made 24 jam tarts then this afternoon I made a large cheese and onion quiche. I’ve just seen this and it’s 23:22 in the evening and I know what I’m going to be baking in a bit 👍👍 ❤ bless him so much so sorry to hear he has passed away.

Wow this is definitely a must try recipe
@@MrPaulsPantry Oh yeah! I made this all the time as a kid. One of the first things Mom helped me with. In a pie pan. I had 4 hungry Bros and Mom and Dad whenever I baked. My cakes fell over and I made my frosting blue. But there was NEVER any problem of leftovers haha! Thankyou!🏴🇬🇧🍪 I've used icing sugar to make sugar cookies for my daughter. They were actually pretty good. To be honest even the raw dough for these things was tempting when I was pregnant haha.
Wow..this is nice. Wanna try it
💞 to you in Nigeria.
Just made your shortbread. Hardest part was waiting for the butter to soften. Turned out amazing. Love that there is no fancy-pants stand mixer required! Fantastic. Ted Lasso would approve! Thank you, Mr. Paul.
Glad you liked it Allyson. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment, I appreciate that. May I wish you a very Merry Christmas from Spain wherever you are.

Wow who knew it was so easy. I love shortbread. I might try this recipe. It's so expensive in the shops.
THANK you for the lessons.
I've made these 3 times now and always they come out perfectly. Thank you
OMG!!’ These were heaven!!!
Before my grandmother passed we would make a bunch of cookies for Christmas, and this was one of the styles. She mixed it up a little bit with dipping the cookies half in melted chocolate and a bit of sea salt flaked on the top. Im happy i found this video to remind me the way to make them. Might have to bring back the tradition this year.
Hi, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I did exactly the same in my Bakery in the UK. If the display looked a little empty Saturday lunchtime we would do that with half the shortbreads we had left ro make more selection as it was too late make anything.
Thank you Mr. Paul for this recipe. Scottish Shortbread is my all time favorite to pair with a cup of tea. Thus far, I have only eaten store/bakery bought biscuits. I had no idea they were this easy to make. :-)
They look amazing. I will have to try them 💕❤️
I Lived in northern ireland for almost 13 years and short bread cookies were and still are to this day my favourite thing in the world❤️ now that i know they are that simple to make, i am so putting on my baking apron tomorrow!

I decided to give this recipe ago. Had no flour so improvised ! Made my own flour out of porridge oats ! Successful & very, very delicious.
Wow Hayley, I never thought of trying oats, it sounds great, I'll be trying that out in the near future. Thanks for your feedback I really appreciate it. x
Wow, now that's what I call resourceful! Clever girl!! I will make a note of that! Well done!

I love shortbreads, especially those from Scotland., I didn’t know, it is so simple to make, and they are selling it expensively here in Malaysia. i will definitely try this. Thank you so much...
I made these last night and they were absolutely perfect! They took quite a bit longer to bake as I used a 6-inch round pan, hence they were thicker. Thicker but damn delicious and they were the easiest treat I have ever baked! Thank you so much for this video 😊

Could not suppress a shudder at someone calling beautiful shortbread 'butter cookies'!!!
Hello! Im half welsh half spanish, currently living in Spain and I am so thankful for this recipe! Here its difficult to find shortbread biscuits and when you find them, they are way too expensive. Absolutely love them!
Hello Eva, that's true, I think it must be the cost of importing them because the ingredients aren't expensive. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment, I appreciate that.

Thank you so much, this recipe of your is a lifesaver. I am baking and selling it now ,I only add a little powdered milk and the taste is exceptional. Thank you love from Ghana ( Africa ) 🇬🇭🇬🇭
So when you add in the powdered milk, what quantity do you add in and do you have to reduce the flour quantity or leave everything else as same?
Thank you Mr Paul. Will definitely try.
Please do, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment, I do appreciate that. For more of my recipes go to my website at : mr-pauls-pantry.com/

I made half a batch yesterday (I needed a little bit more butter to get it to the paste in your video) and they came out tasting amazing and enjoyed by the whole family. Thank you!
Wonderful! But if you keep working the dough the heat from your hands will soften the butter and it will go together OK. Visit my Website mr-pauls-pantry.com/ For more recipes. Stay safe and keep cooking.
Thanks for the recipe my favourite n I will try it from Ghana 🇬🇭 once again thank u

So simple. Thank you for the recipe and technique
My pleasure Tamara😊
Hi Mr. Paul! First off, I cannot thank you enough for posting this recipe. Several years ago, I had to give up eating shortbreads (my favorite cookie!) because the best are usually made with dairy product ( I had to switch to plant-based eating for health reasons). So after many years of forfeiting shortbread… I’ve been on the hunt for an authentic dairy-free shortbread recipe and none of them tasted perfect, until I found your video! I ended up substituting the butter for plant-based vegan butter and it tastes PERFECT! Just like the real butter version. Everything else, I kept exactly the same as your recipe.
Now I make them as often as possible! And Every time I make them, I can’t help but think about you and hope you are having a nice day.
Again, thank you so much for doing this video for us!
Joshua

Very simple but the result is perfect.
Can't recommend this one enough.
Thanks, Paul!!
Thank you for your feedback, it's much appreciated
Yes !...I like them very much
infact i used to buy them when i was based in London at the Scottish shop ...
I bought them in small packs at Mark's & Spencer's in Singapore where I live.
Now I can make them aplenty !
Thank you for this, your video was genuinely lovely. I will be making these for my family this year.
