Shortbread, hailing from Scotland, is a classic biscuit known for its simple yet rich flavor profile and crumbly texture. Traditionally consisting of just three main ingredients—butter, sugar, and flour—shortbread biscuits are prized for their delicate, melt-in-your-mouth quality and buttery taste. These biscuits can be easily made at home and customized with additional flavors such as vanilla, chocolate chips, or citrus zest. They are perfect for tea time, served alongside a cup of coffee, or as a base for dessert bars or crumbled garnishes for ice cream and other sweet treats. Shortbread is versatile and can be cut into shapes such as rectangles, squares, or festive designs depending on the occasion.
