Scary as it is Christmas is just around the corner and one thing that l really love is Christmas baking. I have been on the hunt for a traditional shortbread recipe, I had some spare time today so l thought l would give Margaret Fulton's recipe a try. The biscuits are mouthwatering and l can see myself making them time and time again. They would make the perfect handmade Christmas gift.
