The Best Shortbread | Small Batch Version | English Shorrtbread

[@maxineb9598]

Recently made Scottish shortbread adding chopped dried cranberries and pistachios to basic recipe. I make it by hand just squishing everything together. No need for an appliance when the butter is room temperature.

Thank you Leigh Anne! I love shortbread cookies. I’m 77 & live alone, so this is the perfect amount! Happy New Year! 🎉🎉🎉

[@L..V..]

Yes! Was just wanting some short bread AND wanting to use new food processor I just received as a Christmas gift. What perfect timing! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I’m so glad you found the recipe - enjoy!

[@brendastenger]

Yes, more small batch recipes, please! Love shortbread!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I'm always working on new small batch recipes!

[@pamelaklemp5615]

This recipe is exactly 💯 what I wanted to find and the ingredients and instructions seem so easy. Thinking about omitting the Almond Extract and adding finely ground Cashew Nuts into the dough for the nut flavor. Cashews go so good with Jam or Marmalade. Thinking I might make this later today! Perfect for a day like today when there's a strong chill in the air... Shortbread and a hot beverage of choice = pure comfy pleasure.

[@ImaOKay522]

@pamelaklemp5615 Yes, 20f (9f wind chill) in Ohio right now! Here it comes. Turn the oven on🧊❄️🧊❄️

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I hope you love the recipe and adding cashews is a great idea!

I love shortbread biscuits with Earl Grey tea.🙏

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Sounds like a perfect combo!

[@sharim]

I like Harney & Sons Victorian London Fog tea-black & oolong teas with hints of vanilla, citrus and lavender. Sooooo delicious with steamed milk and a little sugar! I can’t wait to try this small batch shortbread!

[@peanutuke5346]

Love your recipes! I would like to request small batch rum balls.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

That sounds delicious - I'll add it to my list!

[@ladonnapasco7551]

Thank you. Love shortbread.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Shortbread is the best!

[@julieproudusacitizen8343]

Yum! My grandparents were from outside of London also! My grandmother loved her afternoon tea with milk and sugar with a biscuit/cookie. 💕

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you enjoyed it and that it reminded you of your grandparents!

[@toniedalton5448]

Thanks !!! My fav. I'd love a recipe for oatmeal cookies !!! Another favorite and I eat too many with a whole batch

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Here's my recipe for oatmeal cookies. You can make one giant cookie or split it into 3-4 cookies.kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIXUgYNtatOXpbcsi=Ar97eVUFpaYPM_bL

???/Suggestion: I would love to see more small batch main dishes and/or side dishes that you may have. My 86 year old mama has really begun to have trouble cooking for herself, and especially coming up with smaller quantities to cook since it is just her. Would love to give her some recipes that I can help her cook.Thank you!

[@TwilightStorm]

I'm not sure how your mom feels about rice, but one-pot rice cooker meals are just prep, and hands-off for cooking. There's multi-cooker type rice cooker's that can saute too. They can pretty much do everything except pressure cook. I got a small Aroma rice multi cooker pro from Walmart that was around $40 a few years ago and make giant pancakes, rice meals, soup... It works for a lot of things. It might be easier for her. Best wishes and many you all have a good new year. ❤

[@pamelaklemp5615]

A small 1.5qt or 2qt Slow Cooker (like a smaller Crock Pot) is most helpful. Many of them have the keep warm function and some have the Safety Shut-off features if her memory is not as good as it used to be during younger years years. Get one with the On/Off Light and the Warm, Low, High settings. There's a ton of recipes for them... again designed for smaller portions made especially for the smaller Slow Cookers. I'm in my mid 70s (age) and ❤❤❤ mine.

[@ImaOKay522]

I can't wait to make this! Thank you! Perfect little gift, too❤ i am thinking to use 😊orange extract?!?

[@pamelaklemp5615]

Orange Extract 🍊 sounds like it would be so good 👍. Maybe a touch of fresh Shredded Coconut 🥥 Flakes added in or on the top would be AWESOME too.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

That would be a delicious addition!

[@zzydny]

Great recipe! Three of my grandparents came from Great Britain, so shortbread was always a favorite in my family, too. Will be trying your recipe soon. Thank you.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I hope you like it.

[@jackihopper2461]

Oooohhhhh .... am thinking of doing this down the line .... luv shortbead ... Thankyou for doing up this 🤤😋

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

It's a great recipe! Hope you enjoy it.

[@carolaguilera6911]

Happy new year 🎉

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Happy New Year to you as well!

[@apfelstrudel714]

Sometimes I use almond extract, for my fav flavor

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Almond extract is my favorite.

[@FrazierMtnCheese]

Would these be like the ones in the show Ted Lasso?

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Yes, same type of shortbread.

[@vanessalumbra9409]

Shortbread goes well with a hot cup of coffee. Or hot chocolate.

[@grlnexdoorable]

Or hot tea.

[@vanessalumbra9409]

@grlnexdoorable Yes! I forgot tea. Thanks!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I agree, it's the perfect treat for a cold day!

[@MadelineWyman]

is this british shortbread ! our family makes Swedish short bread with jam and icing its good except you make dents with the end of knife

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

This is an English/British style shortbread.

[@phoenixr6811]

How about Prime rib for one or two people 🤗Valentines Day request 😊

[@karenmilligan3590]

Buy small prime rib. Have butcher cut into 2 portion chunks. Cook. Slice. Freeze non cooked chunks for another day.

[@susandempsey8139]

Aren't Walker Shortbreads a Scottish product?

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

It is but Scotland is part of the United Kingdom which also includes England and Wales.

[@susandempsey8139]

Ok, I thought you said England earlier. No biggie :)

[@jackiemyers6821]
