What seems to be easy....

....might not be.

--> The shortbread. Easy to get ingredients and steps but actually not easy to bake; as required to handle butter that would melt SO fast in this extremely humid and hot weather. This time I use a fork to breakup and mix the butter into the flour (instead of using finger tips - finger tips because the tips temperature is the lowest so butter won't melt so easily and become gooey)

However, still not very pleased with my 2nd attempt, although it was less flaky than the first. I think the butter melt too quickly again.



I'll bake it again this weekend! This time I will use the mixer with the dough attachment to mix the butter and flour!
