Shortbread II

With the earlier batch consumed in record time, I decided to whip up more *to pacify the demands by DH and M*

My usual browsing brought me to an interesting title "Buckingham Palace Shortbread" - wow, the Queen's own shortbread that she has for tea, now that must be something special!

Walker's also ranks high on the list of brands for shortbread fans. Die-hard Walker-want-to-be bakers suggested using 3 parts flour, 2 parts butter and 1 part sugar.


And so here is my abridge shortbread version - would that make this version a Palace Walker now??? Ha ha *sorry for the bad pun*

Verdict by the shortbread experts....both shortbreads are nice, they are different in their own way. Not very helpful huh??? *Yeah I agree that their responses were just too diplomatic!!*

Personally, the earlier version was more buttery (the recipe uses more butter) and while this one has a light crumbly-crunch (is there such a word??) finish. I prefer this one better.
