This is truly wonderful and easy! I have also added some almond flavoring, which was very good. I used a cookie scoop and made individual cookies, which I found to be easier to handle.

If this doesn't taste like your grandma's, then your grandma must've been a lousy cook. This is amazingly buttery shortbread, and was easy to make. My only change would be to cook it a little longer (maybe 5-7 minutes), and cut it into bars with a pizza wheel before it sets. Mine turned out fantastic, and I commend the submitter for an outstanding recipe.

Not sure if the scaling threw the recipe off, but this didn't turn out well for me.

recipe is okay, wasn't like the shortbread from Scotland that I'm used to. Seem to be a little to moist for that. Taste good though and very easy to make
