Instructions
- Prepare your pan of choice. Use a 8 or 9 inch pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper and grease the sides well with butter. See the section 'Shortbread Recipe For a Shortbread Mold' for more information if you are using a Shortbread Mold instead of a pan.
- Cut up room temperature Irish butter into chunks and add them to the food processor bowl. Add the sugar. Close the lid.
- Pulse for a minute or two until the 2 ingredients become creamy. (As it turns in the bowl, it looks 'ropey.')
- Add the flour, and replace the lid.
- Pulse again for a minute or two until a dough ball starts to form.
- Empty the contents of the food processor bowl into the greased pan.
- With a floured hand, even out the Shortbread in the pan using the heal of your hand.
- With a fork, mark ridges along the edges, and fork prints across the surface.
- Place the Shortbread in a preheated 350 degrees F / 180 degrees C for about 25 - 30 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven when it takes on a little color. Allow to cool before cutting. Sprinkle on a little granulated sugar.
