Shortbread
Recipe number 1 is: Shortbread
This shortbread recipe is an old family one that my mom has used for many years. I know it is from a old cookbook from the 40’s or 50′. Over the years at least one thing has changed with the recipe in that the dough is not rolled out and cut into shapes – rather the dough is rolled into logs and cut into coins and topped with a Dragee.
