Traditional Scottish Shortbread – Just 4 Ingredients

Traditions are the best part of the holidays and this is when I get to make my family recipe for Traditional Scottish Shortbread. Rich, tender, irresistibly buttery and wonderfully delicious, my Scottish Shortbread is made from just 4 simple ingredients. You can make it in a pretty mold or in a plain old pie dish. No matter what you use, it’s a great snack with a cup of tea or a dessert with a glass of champagne. The perfect addition to your holiday baking repertories.

=== 🍽🍸🥩 RECIPE ===
1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter (225 g)
2 cups flour (270 g)
3/4 cup confectioners sugar (115 g)
1/8 tsp salt (or less if using salted butter) (pinch)

Preheat oven to 325°F. (165°C)
Spray pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Mix all ingredients by hand, place in pan or mold.
Bake 35-45 minutes, start checking for doneness at 30 minutes.
Shortbread should be light golden.
Cool 15 minutes, cut while still warm.
