Delicious! I did not flatten mine with a glass, but they still tasted great.

These taste delicious, but mine were a crumbly mess…not sure what I did wrong. I tried to pay special attention to all the recipe notes. The dough was also very sticky – I just had to slightly press down with my fingers. If anyone knows what I did wrong to make them SO CRUMBLY, please let me know! They basically start to crumble when you pick them up

@iowasheepfarmgirl – Sorry for the delay in responding – I’m at baking school full time now and haven’t been around here for a while! I don’t roll the dough out, rather it gets rolled into balls in my hands. You want a scant tablespoon per ball, and then you flatten the tops sightly with your fingers or the bottom of a glass (the mounds will end up about 1/2 inch thick). Hope this helps!

I am making these right now, I was wondering did you chill the dough before rolling it out? And when I tried to flatten with glass it only stuck, tried to spay glass and it only worked for one cookie. I am baking now and they seem to be flattening all on their own.

My new shortbread favorite! I add almond to mine & roll them in colored sugar. So pretty!

This is my new go to shortbread recipe! So good and easy to make; they just melt in your mouth. Some raspberry preserves might be good on top with chocolate drizzled over them…I can’t wait to make these again! Thanks!

I made these cookies this past weekend and they turned out great! Very buttery and they melt in your mouth. Delicious!

Exactly the cookie I am looking for. I got some of the little mini-chips at Hickory Farms, you know, the ones that are pastel, minty. I want to put them in/on a little shortbread cookie. and I have not soda or baking powder in the house and can’t get to the store. I love the simple combination of ingredients. Thanks!

Personally, I loved them. I have passed them around tho’ and others were not so enamored. I will make again for myself – I thought they were great!
