shortbread cookies
Crumbly butter biscuits
Shortbread cookies are rich, crumbly butter cookies with a dense, tender texture.
Traditional shortbread uses only butter, sugar, and flour—no leavening—yielding a cookie that's more sandy than chewy.
Scottish in origin, they're often associated with Christmas and tea time: She arranged the shortbread cookies on a platter for the holiday party.
