Frequently Asked Questions
What type of lavender should I use for the Shortbread Cookies?
Use culinary lavender, which is specifically grown for cooking and has a more subtle flavor. Avoid using decorative lavender, as it may not be safe for consumption.
How can I properly incorporate lavender into the dough for my Shortbread Cookies?
Finely chop or crush the culinary lavender before adding it to the dough to release its flavor. Mix it in with the flour to ensure even distribution.
Can I adjust the amount of sugar in the Shortbread Cookies with Lavender recipe?
Yes, you can reduce the sugar slightly if you prefer a less sweet cookie, but keep in mind that sugar also contributes to the texture of the shortbread.

Oops! I think you missed a step in the instructions. Cutting the cookies out of the rectangle?
