I am making cut out shortbread cookies using a heart shaped cookie cutter, but the dough won't stick together! I made the dough last night and it has been chilling in the fridge over night. How can I make the cookies stick together with out really loosing that shortbread texture?
sounds like there isnt enough butter/ too much flour in the recipe. Try bringing some of the dough to room temperature and incorporating some softened butter to get the right consistancy
I have to ask first Kathy if you have made or tasted shortbread before? It is a drier style cookie however it does all depend on the recipe. If you post your recipe and the instructions used as well as if you have a picture of your cookies that would be great, then we can get to the bottom of your issue. /img/vbsmilies/smilies/biggrin.gif
