Shortbread

I've been making and baking today. I made a couple layouts for our Christmas photographs and I just finished baking some shortbreads.  There are thousands of recipes online so I used the one that caught my eye first.


There are three cinnamon ones, two plain and two with cranberries.  Not sure how they taste - leaving them to cool since I burnt my mouth on my coffee yesterday.  They smell lovely.  If these taste okay I might make some to take to the Christmas crop on Sunday.

I don't like the taste of cinnamon. I've only had one apple and cinnamon muffin (made by a lovely lady in Pounawea, NZ) that I liked the taste off.  My Mom can be the guinea pig for these.  Really need to get a rolling pin though.  I put the mixture into little ball shapes and pushed them down with a spoon, but they could look prettier.  Mom should be home in about an hour so I will get her to taste test and let you know her reaction.

  1. I've had one & my Mom had two cinnamon ones. They taste nice. A little hard but still yummy.
