Finally sth. sweet again. 🙂 Jessie from Scotland told me via Skype: „If you want to make sth. really Scottish you should bake shortbread.“ And that´s what we did.

Jessie and I met at an international forum for vegans. We wrote for almost four weeks and I had the feeling that we know each other for several years when we finally baked the shortbread together.

That lovely Scottish lady lives in Edinburgh and I fell in love with her Scottish accent so much that this definitely wasn´t the last time we spoke to each other! Promised Jessie! 🙂

Shortbread

• 250 g vegan butter
• 450 g flour
• 110 g sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix melted, soft butter and sugar together. Add the salt, then the flour. Knead until you have a smooth dough.

Roll out the dough (not too thin). Cut into rounds or fingers or any desired form (I wanted to be creative and did cut out cats and dogs) and place onto a baking tray.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 200 degrees.

Enjoy your meal!
