I was so happy that I spotted this recipe as I could finish up all my leftover cherries. I am a lover of shortbread and I really like this recipe. It has strong buttery taste and aroma.
I have reduced the sugar from 170g to 160g but felt it could be further reduced to 150g. I have ran out of plain flour, so I used self-raising flour instead. The next time, I will try with plain flour to find out if there is any difference to the texture.
P.S. This shortbread is crumbly with soft texture, not crunchy like cookies.
