This turned out great. The only thing I did to it was add 1 tsp. vanilla extract.

I love the flavor of these cookies... but the dough keeps crumbling when I roll it out to cut it...

I followed the recipe exactly as stated and they turned out perfectly! Friends were so eager to take them home when I made them for the first time yesterday, that I've had to make more today! For those reviewers that found the dough too hard to handle/sticky, I suggest perhaps the dough was not chilled enough. Also, rolling out the dough between greaseproof/wax paper might help. I added vanilla extract in my second batch, and although delicious, I think I prefer them just as the recipe states.

This recipe is awesome. I had my husband measure out the flour and he used a wet measuring cup and it still worked out great. I will keep this for years. To counteract the "lack" of seasoning other reviewers complained about -- we added about 1/2 tsp of freshly-grated nutmeg. It gives the cookies a hint of flavor. These are wonderful!

The taste of this cookie is the only reason I gave this 3 stars. I doubled the recipe and followed it to a T. When I tried to knead the dough and roll it out - DISASTER. It fell apart, stuck to the well floured/icing sugared rolling pin, and wouldn't cut out. It was a nightmare. Like I said, after 2 hours of working with the dough in SMALL batches and finally getting it to cut out, the taste was awesome. Totally not worth the hassle though. I'll use a different recipe next time because there's other just as tasty but easier to make shortbread cookies out there.

For taste, I would give this 10 stars. Melt in your mouth, buttery cookie. Let edges LIGHTLY brown on cookie, too. Brings out the nuttiness of butter. I did try to use this in my cookie press with frustrating results. Could be my press, though. I wrapped up the rest to chill in fridge. Will press into round pans, prick with fork, bake and cut into wedges.

They kept their shape great. But the taste was very dull and blah. Would not make this again. I was very disapointed.

Very good, simple recipe. Worked great. I actually completely melted the butter (I almost always do that for the sake of thorough mixing, though it doesn't always come out right). Also ran out of flour, so had to use an extra 1/2 cup of sugar and reduce flour by about 1/2 cup. Sprinkled with powdered sugar fresh out of the oven so sugar would melt slightly. Made a delicious fresh cookie, and still tastes good the next day when stored in tin foil with a loose seal (they were still warm and I wanted to go to bed).

Yummy! Very good! I added a lemon glaze over cooled cookies for a bit of flavor, as they were a bit bland.

Just what a shortbread is supposed to be: not too sweet, and when you break it apart, you can see the flaky layers :) What I liked about this one is that it keeps its shape and crumbles IN your mouth, not before you get it there. And, if you're a clumsy one like me, no worries...when you drop them, they don't break! After years of searching, this is going to be my shortbread recipe. Thanks a lot!

We didn't really like this shortbread recipe. The dough was easy to work with and held its shape well but I found the cookies bland. They tasted too much like flour. I would suggest reducing the amount of flour in the recipe if you are going to make them.
