This recipe came from a handout from a butter company. I like it because of the addition of oatmeal (I feel "healthy" eating it..lol). Feel free to substitute the dried cranberries with any other dried fruit (cherries are good). Sometimes, I even add 1/4 cup chopped pecans.

BROWN SUGAR AND OATMEAL SHORTBREAD



Brown Sugar and Oatmeal Shortbread image

These have a wonderful texture - buttery, melt-in-your-mouth soft, yet a little crunchy. The cornstarch makes this shortbread especially tender, while the addition of oatmeal give it a bit of crunch. Using old-fashioned oats instead of quick-cooking will provide more crunch. Recipe by Elinor Klivans. These can be made ahead and frozen up to 3 months. Wrap them tightly with plastic wrap, then seal in a clean plastic/metal container.

Tips:

  • Use good quality butter. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your shortbread. Look for butter that is at least 82% fat.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the shortbread tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the shortbread hold its shape and prevent it from spreading too much.
  • Bake the shortbread in a preheated oven. This will help the shortbread cook evenly.
  • Don't overbake the shortbread. Overbaking will make the shortbread dry and crumbly. Bake the shortbread just until it is golden brown around the edges.
  • Let the shortbread cool completely before cutting it. This will help the shortbread hold its shape.
