All-butter cookies have a kind of misleading name. They can’t be all butter, can they? How would you pick them up?
In fact, these Scottish shortbread also contain flour and sugar (but nothing else). Which probably makes them mostly-butter cookies, if we’re being accurate.
Light, crumbly (that’s what ‘short’ means in baking terms) and available in loads of different shapes, these Dean’s Shortbread Petticoat Tails are still made by hand to this day. So what’s a little false advertising?
