Santa’s Whiskers Shortbread Biscuits
Someone asked me recently if I had a recipe for Santa’s Whisker’s Shortbread and as I love shortbread and hadn’t heard of it I had to investigate further! They are an American holiday cookie and will definitely be on my baking list at Christmas every year from now on. They are buttery shortbread biscuits with the addition of glacé cherries and pecan nuts, then rolled in coconut which is where the whiskers come from. In my version I have used my usual shortbread recipe, then I

Satsuma & Ginger Shortbread Biscuits
I had a lot of satsumas to use up this week so I made these delicious stars! They are satsuma ginger shortbread biscuits. I have used crystallised ginger in this recipe but you could use stem ginger if you want a stronger ginger taste. Crystallised ginger works really well for these biscuits and makes them a bit Christmassy. They are buttery, melt in your mouth and have a lovely hit of the warm spice of ginger. They look pretty festive too!!!! If you don’t have a star cutter
