01

Scottish Shortbread

Number of servings: 32 cookies

Prep. time: 20 minutes

Total time: 1 hour or less

Ingredients:

This is the way the ingredients were given to me in Scotland:

10 ounces plain flour

1/2 pound good margarine or butter

3 ounces castor sugar

Translation:

10 ounces =1 and 1/4 cup flour

1/2 pound = 2 sticks (I use margarine)

3 ounces = a little over 1/3 cup sugar

Soften margarine and combine with sugar and mix in a mixer. Add flour a little at a time and stir in with wooden spoon (not in mixer), then knead remainder of flour into mixture until smooth. Divide the dough into two parts and pat each part into a round cake pan. Crimp the edges with a fork and prick all over to the bottom of the dough. Bake at 350 degrees until lightly browned. About 20 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with sugar. Cut into triangles while still hot. Carefully remove from pans with spatula before it cools completely.

Note: I got this recipe when I was living in Scotland in 1963-65, from the mother of one of my Scottish friends.
