Comment préparer Traditional Rich Scottish Shortbread Biscuits Cookies

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This is best done with an electric mixer.
Gradually add the flour, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently press it into a 1/2 inch thick rectangle or circle.
Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes (rounds, triangles, stars, etc.) or press into a decorative shortbread mold.
Carefully transfer the shortbread shapes to the prepared baking sheet.
Prick the biscuits several times with a fork to prevent them from puffing up.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let the shortbread cool completely on a wire rack before serving or packaging. They will crisp up as they cool.
For an authentic touch, package your shortbread in attractive tins or cellophane bags, adorned with a tartan ribbon and a sprig of heather.
