4 Reviews of Shortbread

This is the recipe I have been using for years. Everyone asks for shortbread from me for their Christmas gifts. Because this is a very old recipe it is for hand mixing. If you use a stand mixer you will have to add more flour (about 1 cup), then I am able to roll them out & cut into shapes. The rice flour is the difference!

    Way too much butter! I baked a half recipe and for over 45 minutes and they would not brown or harden. I ended up with some nice material for a crumbly pie crust. Try reducing the butter to 3/4 pounds, that should work.
