As part of our Scotland topic, primaries 2 and 2/1 over 3 consecutive weeks will have had the opportunity to make and taste some shortbread – a delicious Scottish biscuit!

Mrs Thomson in our school kitchen allowed us to help her make some.  We measured and weighed flour, sugar, margarine and cornflour and then it was mixed into a batter.  Mrs Thomson then rolled the batter and used a fork to pierce a hole design in it before putting it in the oven.

Mrs Thomson brought it along to us once it was fresh out of the oven.  It was still warm and smelled delightful!  We all enjoyed having a little taste!
