Surprisingly easy lemon shortbread from Sure Thing Desserts: Truly Perfect Versions of Everyday Classics (page 92) by Matt Lewis

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Super easy, and turned out great. Nice and crispy, using the technique the author mentioned about leaving them in the oven with door ajar after baking. I saw the variation he suggested with cocoa nibs, and decided to try that - however I left the lemon zest, since I like a lemon/chocolate combination anyway. Very pleased with the results!
