Scottish Brown Sugar Shortbread

Scottish Brown Sugar Shortbread


1. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar.

2. Add 3-3/4 cups flour; mix well.

3. Sprinkle a board with some of the remaining flour.

4. Place butter/sugar/flour mixture on the floured board. Knead for 5 minutes, adding enough of the remaining flour to make a soft, non-sticky dough.

5. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into three-inch by one-inch strips.

6. Place strips one inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Use a fork on a slight angle and prick each strip six times.

7. Bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 25 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned.
