Bake with Anna Olson — Season 1, Episode 35: Shortbread Cookies
Reality • 25 min • 3 seasons, 80 episodes
Episode synopsis
Mmm, shortbread, an old-fashioned style of cookie that’s buttery, rich and crumbly—perfect with a cup of hot tea or a glass of cold milk. Anna starts out preparing a basic Vanilla Spritz Shortbread by piping cookie dough through a cookie press, a great technique to give cookies a pretty shape. Then Anna prepares traditional Scottish Pan Shortbread. This timeless recipe makes denser dough and is a little more challenging but produces dozens of buttery cookies that melt in your mouth. For the ultimate application of shortbread, Anna creates Chocolate Raspberry Napoleons, shortbread at its most elegant. And finally for a little fun, Anna bakes Decorated Shortbread Cut-Outs.
