question about lavender shortbread cookies from files

[Guest guest]

Hi, regarding this recipe posted by Amy, the recipe

says to line and lightly spray a baking pan with oil.

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but what do I line

the pan with?

Then it says to gently lift out by foil into the

cutting surface. Can anyone explain this to me

please? I'm sorry, I don't get it. I want to make

this but I don't want to mess it up.

Thanks!

Susan

Susan - line the pan with foil, allowing it to overlap the edges by an

inch or two, and make it as flat/smooth as possible inside the pan.

Spray the foil. When you make the cookie dough, press it into the

lined pan. When you are done baking it, use the overlapped parts of

the foil as handles to lift the shortbread out of the pan. If you

don't do this, you'll never get the shortbread out of the pan intact! :-)

 

Does that clarify enough? Lemme know.

Amy,

Yes, that's perfect. Thank you!

I can't wait to try these. I just have to wait for my

spearmint to dry.

Thanks again,

Susan
