G’s Gistorical Griday: Shortbread edition

The Yummy Shortbread Recipe!

  • 1 pound of the best butter you can find! That should be 4 sticks.
  • 5 ½  cups of all-purpose flour and ½ cup for when you roll it out.
  • 1 cup of brown or powdered sugar.

Take your pound of butter and make sure it’s nice and soft. Like really soft and then mix it together (well) with the sugar. After this has been thoroughly done, add your flour and mix extremely well with your hands. Once it has been mixed to your liking, roll it into a ball. Next,  proceed to roll the shortbread ball out. Make sure that it isn’t too thin, it needs to be a bit thick. Preferably an inch thick. Place it into your baking dish/pan and then cook on 350ºF until it is golden-brown.

I figured out a solution, Kendra! I could bake them and then send them to Mari and you can hope she sends them to you and doesn’t eat them haha. Or I could sit my laptop on the kitchen counter and attempt to film it haha.

Taylor, Taylor, Taylor, why would it be a bad thing? :D
