you need to put all the ingredients into a blender to mix. this will solve the problem the other poster had with a lumpy batter. i made a few subs because i didn't have the ingredients. i used 2% milk instead of whole. i used baker's sugar instead of regular granulated. i used 3/4 stick of butter instead of the two tablespoons because another recipe i had calls for that amount. i served them with sliced strawberries sprinkled with a little sugar and a dark dark chocolate sauce from a stash i got from trader joe's when i was in boston. i also did the lemon and sugar.

my friends love this. i use maple bacon and yukon gold potatoes. it doesn't even need the cream. my friend is allergic to milk so i make hers w/out cream. sometimes i will use 1% milk or half and half.

great tasting shortbread but not the easiest to work with. i am making four batches of star shaped cookie lollipops right now. i will dip in white chocolate and decorate with colored royal icing. what i learned: too crumbly. i ended up having to get the dough to stick together by sprinkling a little water on the dough. i used less flour in subsequent batches. i prefer the taste of almond extract in shortbread. i probably would not roll and cut into shapes if i wasn't making for friends. probably an easier recipe if i just press into pan, prick with fork, and cut into wedges.
