Funfetti shortbread squares
I was scrolling through pinterest when i came across these funfetti shortbread pieces. I immediately knew i had to make them myself. They looked amazing. I thought they would be cool and fun to make for picnic or for snacking on at home on rainy days like today whilst cuddled up on the sofa.This is how i made them.
Ingredients
- 125g butter
- 55g caster sugar( plus extra)
- 180g plain flour
- Hundreds and thousands
Method
- Pre heat the oven to 190 degrees Gas 5
- Beat the butter and sugar together until smooth
- Sift in the flour, mix and then add your sprinkles and mix some more.
- Once a dough is formed roll out on top a worktop and cut into squares. Place on a baking tray and sprinkle sugar over the top. Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes
- After the shortbread has been chilled, bake in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes or until a pale golden brown. Leave to cool and enjoy!
I didnt have any hundreds and thousands and had to make do with the dotty ones, they still worked but they just didnt keep the colour as much.
I hope you enjoy making these, let me know how you decide to enjoy them. Feel free to send me your pictures of the ones youve made, i will love to see how they come out.
