SCOTTISH SHORTBREAD
Scottish settlers first came to this area over 150 years ago. My mother herself was Scottish, and-as with most of my favorite recipes-she passed this shortbread recipe on to me. I make a triple batch of it each year at Christmas, to enjoy and as gifts. -Rose Mabee, Selkirk, Manitoba

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to gas mark 2/300°F/150°C.
- Prepare a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- First of all, beat the butter in a bowl with a wooden spoon to soften it.
- Beat in the sugar, followed by the sifted flour and semolina.
- Work the ingredients together with the spoon, pressing them to the side of the bowl, then finish off with your hands until you have a smooth mixture that doesn't leave any bits in the bowl.
- Divide the mixture into 9, and shape each portion into a ball (dust the work surface with flour if you find the mixture too sticky to work with).
- Flatten each one slightly and prick the centre with a fork (but not all the way through).
- To make it look pretty, make a 1 cm crinkly border on the top by lightly pressing a fork making a slight indent working all the way around (working for the edge towards the centre).
- Make sure that the biscuits are at least 1/2 inch in thickness (with the indentations at the edges).
- Place onto the prepared baking sheet, very well spaced out as they will spread out quite a bit during baking.
- Bake them for 50-60 minutes on the centre shelf of the oven (keep an eye on it after 45 mins - the edges seem to colour more easily than the top) - it should have turned pale gold and feel firm in the centre.
- Remove from the oven and dust the top with caster sugar.
- Leave it to cool for 5 minutes on the baking tray before transferring them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container.

SCOTTISH SHORTBREAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place butter in mixer and beat with paddle until soft and light. Beat in sugar in a stream and continue beating 5 to 10 minutes until the mixture is very light and whitened. Stir in the flour by hand until it absorbed, no more or the dough will toughen.
- Scrape the dough onto a floured surface and flour the dough with pinches of flour. Press the dough out with your hands, then roll over once or twice very gently with a rolling pin until the dough is about 1/2-inch thick. Cut the dough with floured cutters and transfer the cut pieces to a paper lined pan.
- Bake the shortbread for about 15 minutes until it is very lightly colored. Cool the shortbread on a rack.
- To use a shortbread mold to shape, press the mold into the floured dough and cut around it. Transfer the cut and molded dough to a paper lined pan and chill about 1 hour until firm. Bake as above.

- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Coat an 8-inch ceramic shortbread mold with cooking spray; set aside.

- Preheat the oven to 300°F. Lightly grease two round 9-in cake pans with butter. (If you worry about the shortbread sticking in your particular pans, line them with parchment rounds, and then butter the parchment.)
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or beaters, combine the butter, sugar, vanilla, and almond extract. Beat until smooth, creamy and well combined. Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed until you have an evenly mixed, stiff dough.
- Divide the dough in half (if you have a scale, each half will weigh about 10.5 oz), and press each half into an even layer in the prepared pans, dusting your fingers with flour as necessary to prevent the dough from sticking. To smooth the surface, place a piece of plastic wrap over the dough and smooth with your fingers. Use a fork to prick the dough all over in 1-in intervals to allow steam to escape while the shortbread bakes.

- Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan, then sprinkle with decorating sugar mix. Press the sugar gently into the dough so that it will stick.
- Optional: If you want to prick the dough with a fork, first score the dough into bars by pressing a knife partially into the dough. Then use a fork to create prick marks within the scored lines.
