  • 1 cup vegan margarine
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, tightly packed
  • 2 1/8 cups plain flour

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 300°F.
  2. Cream together margarine and sugar.
  3. Add sifted flour 1/4 cup at a time.
  4. Use hands to mix into a soft, smooth dough.
  5. With hands press into a 1-2cm thick rectangle and use sharp knife to cut into fingers.
  6. Use fork to make pretty shortbread holes.
  7. Place in oven for 25 minutes.
  8. Let cool on tray for 5 minutes.
  9. EXTRA NOTES:
  10. This shortbread is not overly sweet - feel free to add another loosely packed TBS or 2 of brown sugar to the mix. Feel free to sprinkle granulated sugar on top before baking. Also depending on your oven cookies can be ready after only 15-20 minutes or can be cooked for up to 50 minutes (for extra crunch and with a very golden bottom). Keep an eye on shortbread for your preference.
