  • Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes until edges just start to brown. Reduce oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit, and continue baking for another 10 minutes or so.

  • Re-cut shortbread wedges immediately after they are done baking. Then allow them to cool completely in baking pans before serving or trying to remove them.


    • These shortbreads are great on their own, or as a side treat with a scoop of your favorite ice cream. This dough is also perfect for freezing. Use stone-ground cornmeal for an even better texture.
