I have to ask, in your post you said that you also have a recipe from the same author for cinnamon buns using croissant rolls, if you could share that it would be great! <br />Thanks againAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664157240439424847.post-30144228453829568032011-10-25T12:48:33.170-07:002011-10-25T12:48:33.170-07:00I think there was a little extra that is why I mad...I think there was a little extra that is why I made some fingers. I also often double shortbread recipes because they are so good and go so fast. If you press the dough into the pan it should be about 1/2 to 3/4 inches thick, and of course baking time adjusts accordingly. ps. ask as many Q's as you like :)Tiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17079250994113691796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664157240439424847.post-38719580449565656112011-10-25T07:48:15.732-07:002011-10-25T07:48:15.732-07:00Alright thanks so much!

Also were the baking times the same for baking it as one big cookie and as separately cut ones?

I want to make these tomorrow - they look delicious, and I've loved all your recipes thus far - but I was looking for some clarification on how you cooked them... Did you cut them into bars and then bake them on a sheet or just bake the dough in a springform pan and cut them once out of the oven? It looks like that in the photo but I can't tell.Shannon Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10944175480053444452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664157240439424847.post-22905430330280004842009-12-07T08:49:08.238-08:002009-12-07T08:49:08.238-08:00Thanks for double checking the recipe!

Anyway, I'll definitely try them again and adjust the baking time to fit my oven's quirks!<br /><br />I don't have a blog, just enjoy other people's.

Maybe you had them rolled out a little thinner than mine or maybe the rack was higher up in the oven? <br /><br />Thanks for trying them out and giving me the feedback. Do you have a blog too?TIA @ BUTTERCREAMBARBIEnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664157240439424847.post-43924896419604095762009-12-05T07:10:09.777-08:002009-12-05T07:10:09.777-08:00I recently discovered your blog, and I really love...I recently discovered your blog, and I really love it. Great stuff!<br /><br />I tried this recipe the other night, and I am wondering if there is a typo in the baking time. The recipe specifies 15 min. at 350° plus an additional 15-20 at 300°. I took out the tray after the second 15 minutes, and they were dark brown. Another five minutes and they would have been burned. My oven runs cool, so a normal oven would have produced even darker shortbread.<br /><br />My fault for not checking earlier in the baking process (I had a fleeting thought that the baking time seemed a bit long, but carelessly didn't check on my shortbread at all while it was in the oven). Just thought I'd mention it.<br /><br />Even with the over-darkening, this shortbread was GOOD. I can't wait to try it again, with a shorter baking time. Maybe five minutes at 350°, followed by 15 at 300°.<br /><br />I look forward to all your future postings!!
