Steps:
- Preheat oven to 160°C/gas 3.
- Lightly grease baking tray or place a piece of baking paper over the tin (to stop the unlikely event of the Shortbread sticking).
- Place sifted flour and sugar into bowl and mix together.
- Dice the margarine and gradually rub into flour until breadcrumbs.
- Add vanilla essence and carry on rubbing in with fingertips.
- When the mixture sticks together, place on floured workspace and gently knead until a soft ball.
- Roll out until 1.5 cm in thickness, then cut into Shortbread fingers or petticoat tails. (Using a biscuit cutter is a good way to get a more defined shape)
- Prick all over with a fork or a cocktail stick and (for petticoat tails) mark the edges as well.
- Place in the oven for 15-20 mins and then leave to cool. (Make sure you take the Shortbread out when it is starting to darken round the edges of the biscuit)
- Sprinkle caster sugar over the biscuits (after fully cooled).
SCOTTISH SHORTBREAD
Scottish settlers first came to this area over 150 years ago. My mother herself was Scottish, and-as with most of my favorite recipes-she passed this shortbread recipe on to me. I make a triple batch of it each year at Christmas, to enjoy and as gifts. -Rose Mabee, Selkirk, Manitoba
