My mother is from Scotland and this is her authentic Scottish shortbread recipe. It makes bars, not cookies!

INGREDIENTS (for 3 servings):

PREPARATION:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Cream butter and sugar with mixer. Add flour and mix with a wooden spoon. Use hands to thoroughly mix.
  • Press into a jelly roll pan. Prick to bottom all over with a fork being sure the fork hits the bottom and the pricks are close together.
  • Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 300 and continue to bake for 40 minutes more. Wait 2 minutes then cut into finger size bars. Cool thoroughly in pan.
