Bev’s Shortbread This is a family recipe – Kerin’s mum learnt it many years ago from Judith Durham’s sister, who was a friend!

Method

1. Mix all together thoroughly. 2. Knead well until it is a workable dough. 3. Cut into desired shapes (1/4 inch or 60mm thick). Can be rolled into sausage shapes and cut into rounds. Can decorate with chopped glacé cherries or fruits. 4. Bake on biscuit tray with baking paper at 175 – 190°C for 12 – 20 minutes (keep a close eye on it as it can brown quickly, and you should remove before they go brown).

Notes

• Bake for 12 minutes for small size or children’s rolled out shapes. • Put a tray under shortbread (or on bottom rung) to prevent bottom of shortbread browning too much.
