Title: Red & Green Shortbread
Post by: muzzy on December 22, 2012, 09:34:41 am

I made this today following the recipe and when I went to cut it, it just crumbles?  Can anyone suggest what I did wrong?

Thanks
Muzzy

I don't know what recipe you used but sounds like maybe not enough butter? Perhaps you should have cut it before baking.

Muzzy, I presume you mean the recipe in Festive Flavours?

Did you see the reviews of this recipe here (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=2508.0) and here (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=2225.0)?

I find it easier and more uniform to roll the dough out on my bread mat and cut the cookies out with the MC  ;) ;) Steaming the pistachios firs (think it is in one of the reviews that JD linked to) still makes it easier to cut them out with the MC as well.
