Butterscotch Shortbread Recipe
|
To make Butterscotch Shortbread you will need
Ingredients
| 1 | cup | Unsalted butter | | 1/2 | cups | Dark brown sugar | | 2 | cups | Flour | | 1/2 | teaspoons | Baking powder | | 1/4 | teaspoons | Salt | | 1 | cup | Finely chopped walnuts or pecans |
Instructions
Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together and set aside. Cream the
butter until soft and gradually add the sugar. Add the flour mixture a
little at a time and mix well. Refrigerate for one hour. Divide the dough
in half and keep one portion in the refrigerator while rolling out the
other to approximately 1/4" thickness. (The dough gets soft quickly.)
Sprinkle the dough with the nuts and gently press them in with the rolling
pin. Cut into 1-1/2" squares. Pix uses a paper pattern as she is hopeless
at estimating things like this, unlike Faith. Prick with a fork and place
the squares on an ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat with the rest of the
dough. Bake until golden brown, approximately 15 minutes in a preheated
350F oven. Makes 6 dozen squares.
