THE BEST SHORTBREAD RECIPE RECIPES
SHORTBREAD RECIPE | ALLRECIPES
This is a compilation of several Shortbread recipes I have from British cookbooks. I have been to England three times and REAL shortbread is a favorite. It should use real butter and not be TOO sweet.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Line a baking sheet with greaseproof (parchment) paper. Sift the flour and rice flour into a medium mixing bowl. Add the sugar and mix.
- Cut butter into pieces and rub into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture begins to bind together. Knead into soft dough.
- Roll the dough into an 8 inch round (or for exact round, mold it in an 8 inch cake pan). Place on baking sheet. Using a fork, prick top and make tine marks along edge. Using a table knife, score top with wedge marks. (This is where it will break when cooled)
- Bake 45 minutes or until pale golden in color. Sprinkle a little superfine sugar over top and cool on baking sheet. Cut into wedges. Keeps for weeks in airtight tin.

Steps:
- Put the butter in a large bowl and soften with a wooden spoon. Add the sugar and mix together. Be careful not to incorporate too much air or to overwork the mixture.
- Sift over the flour and semolina, then stir until well mixed. Knead briefly with your hands until smooth, then shape into a neat disc.
- Draw a 23cm circle on a sheet of baking paper. Roll out the dough to fit the circle, keeping the edge neat. Crimp the edge with your thumb, then, using a palette knife and ruler, mark 8 equal segments. Finally, use a fork to prick the dough – try to do this as neatly as possible, pressing the fork right through the dough (this will prevent it from rising).
- Chill for 20 minutes until firm. Preheat a flat baking sheet in the oven to 160°C/fan140°C/gas 3.
- Transfer the shortbread and its paper to the baking sheet and bake for 55 minutes until pale golden, being careful not to let it brown. Remove from the oven and sprinkle evenly with sugar. Loosen the base from the paper by running a palette knife underneath. Cool until crisp enough to move, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

SHORTBREAD, 10 WAYS RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Shortbread is not only one of the easiest desserts you can possibly make, it’s also one of the most adaptable. As long as you keep the butter-to-flour ratio constant (1 stick butter to 1 cup flour), everything else is negotiable. You can reduce or increase the sugar and salt, or mix in any type of flavoring from citrus zest to vanilla to herbs and spices. You can even alter the type of flour, swapping in some rice flour for all-purpose flour for increased crunch, or cornmeal for a nubby texture. Just be cautious about adding liquid to the dough; any more than one tablespoon could interfere with the texture. Here we give a master recipe and nine variations to play around with.
