Settled on this recipe after reading reviewsWas quite sticky when I was trying to make into a roll. Was sticking to my hands. Added flour on board and hands and that helped.

Being December it was warm in the kitchen, so the dough was quite soft by the time I'd cut the biscuits out. They spread in the oven a little, so next time I will put in the fridge to chill before baking, or cut the biscuits smaller. This is why I gave it four stars. Otherwise they tasted delicious and I dipped some in chocolate.

Method

Preheat oven to 150°C bake (140°C fan forced).  Grease oven tray or line with baking paper.

Beat butter and Chelsea Icing Sugar until pale and fluffy. Mix in Edmonds Fielder's Cornflour and Edmonds Standard Grade Flour until the mixture comes together and forms a dough.

On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1 cm thick and cut into shapes using biscuit cutters. Alternatively, roll dough into a log and slice into rounds, using a floured knife to prevent sticking. Sprinkle with Chelsea Coffee Sugar Crystals if desired and press down gently.

Place on prepared tray and bake 25 - 30 minutes, until shortbread is pale but crisp. Cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container.
