SCOTTISH SHORTBREAD

2 sticks butter
1/2 c. powdered sugar
2 c. flour

  3. I love shortbread, but I've never made it. Does one need to have a special pan? Is there something that could substitute?

  4. I've got a shortbread pan, but I'm guessing you could use anything...a round cake pan should work well (or a square one...8x8"...shaped doesn't matter). It would cook the same, just wouldn't be decorative on top, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with plain, so go for it, Laura! Let me know how you like it. (It's delicious!) :)

  5. Homeschool on the Croft - Did you try the recipe? If so, I'd love to hear if you liked it or not and if it worked for you.

    And, thanks, D.! As you can see...I'm responding a little later than I should be here!

    Laura, thanks for bring my attention back to these old posts! I really do appreciate it and your kind friendship! Love you, Lady! <3
