The shortbread is a dough made from flour, sugar, butter and eggs which is mainly used to make pies and cookies. It is called shortbread because of its sandy texture, which is obtained thanks to the addition of sugar and butter to the dough. To make a shortbread dough, just mix the flour, sugar, butter and eggs until you get a homogeneous paste. This dough can be spread out and used as a pie background or to make cookies using cookie cutters. The shortbread is characterized by its easy break and its sweet taste, which makes it an ideal dough to accompany sweet fillings such as jam, pastry cream or whipped cream.
