Directions:Method:
Cranachan: Whisk the cream together with the honey and the malt whisky. Fold in the toasted oatmeal. Pile on top of fresh raspberries and serve with shortbread biscuits.
Shortbread : Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy. Work the sifted flour and rice flour into the creamed mixture until it forms a firm paste. Knead it lightly on a well floured board.
Roll it out until quite thin and cut biscuit shapes with the cutter of your choice. Using a palette knife, lift the biscuits onto a well buttered baking sheet.
Bake on the centre shelf at Gas Mark 5/375F until pale golden in colour. Remove from the oven and sprinkle liberally with caster (fine granulated) sugar while still warm.
Lift on to wire tray to cool and firm-up. Store in an airtight tin |
