  This is a really efficient and easy recipe for a lovely biscuit. I would highly recommend it to any that want to have a go.

  I would try these again, but I wouldn't make one flat biscuit, as the sides went lovely and crispy and brown but the middle was still pretty doughy. More density for the already very dense cranberry fools. Also, the quantitiy of sugar to coat was excessive. You need half that amount.

  Disappointing recipe as it was soggy in the middle but crisp round the edge. Vanilla Shortbread recipe worked a treat just added cinnamon.

  This is quite simply the best shortbread recipe I've come across. I agree that the amount of sugar to coat was too much so next time I just put less on. I cooked mine for the maximum time and also tried it with lemon instead of cinnamon. Probably needed more lemon though. You need to roll it quite thin to ensure it's properly cooked but it crisps up more in an airtight tin afterwards anyway. I was interested to see that it doesn't seem to work with individual biscuits as I was going to try this. I scored lines down mine so it would break into pieces easily. This is going to be a real favourite of mine as it is so quick and easy.
