Buttery Shortbreads

Classic, buttery and brilliantly giftable, these Shortbreads deliver that melt-in-the-mouth texture everyone loves—with an extra-crunchy upgrade. The dough comes together fast with salted butter, golden caster sugar and a touch of vanilla, while a little custard powder adds a subtle richness and tender bite. The real hero is the Demerara sugar coating: brushed on with egg white so it clings, then caramelises in the oven into a sparkling, sweet shell around each biscuit. Slice-and-bake makes them perfect for batch prep, seasonal tins and last-minute baking content.
