Great Great Grandma's Shortbread

Great Great Grandma’s Shortbread
Ingredients
1 pound butter 450 g
4 cups of flour 480 g
1 cup of icing (powdered sugar) sugar or fruit sugar 130g
please recheck the conversion of the ingredients from imperial to metric on the net to make sure they are correct
Instructions
Mix slightly softened butter with flour and sugar. Knead the dough until it’s smooth and begins to crack. Roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thick. Cut with cookie cutter or press into a shortbread mold. Bake in a slow oven 325F (163C) on the middle rack until delicately tanned on the edges maybe 8-10 minutes.. Be super careful not to burn them. Enjoy!
Forget The Mess!

I have a copy of my great great grans recipe from Scotland 1870-this is exactly the same recipe that's been in our family for generations! Everyone I've ever gifted these shortbread cookies has asked for the recipe and are shocked to find its so simple.

[@themessycookbydale414]

Can you use powdered sugar for icing sugar?

[@logarithmic7]

@@laquitapyeatt962 our icing sugar in Canada is made with powdered sugar and cornstarch. I've used 1 cup very fine sugar and 1/3 cup of cornstarch when i've run out of icing sugar.

[@tamyoung69]

add a 4th ingredient, sprinkle with light brown granulated sugar when you take them out to rest. they go from amazing to outstanding. or sandwich 2 together with raspberry jelly/jam and top with melted icing with a jelly tot on top for a delicious traditional Scottish "empire biscuit"

These work very well in a food processor. It only takes about a minute and you dont need worry about getting tough because no needing required. Usually we prick all over the shortbread with a fork to allow heat to penetrate. They are usually chilled in the freezer for 10 minutes or fridge for 30 minutes so as not to spread to much in the oven. As soon as they come out of the oven we cover the shortbread with Caster Sugar and let cool. Not sure what caster is were you are but it is finer than granulated but not as fine as icing Sugar. Sometimes you can put a teaspoon of jam on one biscuit and top it with another the a litte topping of water icing. These are called Empire Biscuits and are delicious. Ronnie from Scotland

[@themessycookbydale414]

Your saying Cookie Cookies !
Shortbread is a Cookie in itself. Just saying from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
For those in the USA its just Shortbread. 😎
Proper Scottish Recipe is :
White Sugar (not Frosting Sugar !) Plain Flour, and Unsalted Butter. That's it !
Rub in Sugar, Butter and Flour together. Combine until it all comes together and doesn't fall apart. DONT knead it... it will make it tough (if so add more Flour and turn it into Pastry !)
Chill for x2 Hrs well wrapped.
Flour a Surface, Roll out with a Rolling Pin. Cut into Fingers (thin Bars) or Pettitecoat (a Large Circle, marked into equal Triangles.) Get a Eating Fork, use the x4 Tines to Poke x4 Hole Patterns all over. This aides the Baking Process (it should not Rise. But bake Flat and even !) Take out of Oven, dusting with White Sugar. Allow Shortbread to Cool a little, cut apart pieces while Warm (not cold or it breaks when cutting apart.) Cool and Store on Greaseproof Paper in a Biscuit (Cookie) Storage Tin.
Simples. Enjoy. 😎
Ideal for Hogmanay our name for Scottish New Year ! 🥳
