I was a bit disappointed with these shortbreads. They were a bit dry and crumbly, and the lemon flavor was not as strong as I had hoped.

These shortbreads were a bit too tart for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the perfect balance of sweet and sour.

These shortbreads were a bit too dry for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of flour.

These shortbreads were a delightful treat! The lemon flavor was perfectly balanced, not too tart and not too sweet. They were also very easy to make, and I loved the fact that I didn't have to chill the dough before baking.
