Stop everything and make my grandmother's shortbread right now!!!!!
1 ½ cups flour
½ tsp salt
½ cup corn starch
1 cup butter
½ cup sugar
Sift flour, salt, cornstarch together twice then work in sugar, then butter continually kneading and working until the dough is fine and smooth. Press in 9 inch square pan and bake at 350° for half to ¾ hours.
@evistre ^^^^^^
It's the best
@Kurtroedeger on a scale of ezpz to killmenow, how much work is kneading until fine/smooth?
@evistre pretty close to ezpz. I only ever just mix with a fork. I don't even sift. It's pretty forgiving. Just needs to be mixed evenly.
@Kurtroedeger mmmm, perfect level of difficulty for meeee. i love shortbread :)
growing up i found a recipe for boterkoek and i fixed that all the time. tons of butter lol
@evistre don't go to any trouble. Sounded interesting. 😍🤗
@Kurtroedeger It's quite good!
I didn't find it in the most likely book, but give this a look-see:
