Bring together with a wooden spoon and then your hands to make firm dough. Don't overwork it or the shortbread will be tough.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll it out a quarter at a time until it is 5mm thick. Cut into rounds using a 6cm/2 ½ inch round cutter.
-
Place the rounds (you should have 14) on the prepared baking trays. Bake in your preheated oven for 30 minutes.
-
After 30 minutes the shortbread should still be pale. Remove from the oven and cool on the tray for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
