Scotch bonnet shortbread

1 servings

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup (2 sticks) butter - DO NOT use margarine
½ cup Granulated sugar
½ teaspoon Salt
2 cups Plain flour; or 1.5 cups plain flour and 0.5 cups rice flour
1½ teaspoon Dried; powdered Scotch Bonnet chile, (or chile of your choice)

(not good for you AT ALL, but tastes nice...) Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees

Cut butter into 1-tbsp. chunks, then quarter each chunk. Combine cubed butter with sugar, salt, powdered chile and flour; knead together until mixture is coarse and crumbly. Press into a 9x9 in. baking pan and bake about 25 minutes or until nicely browned. Remove from oven, cut into squares while still hot, and let cool before eating.

Alternatively, you can take a slab of it while it's still hot and top it with vanilla ice cream- that's REALLY good stuff! Posted to CHILE-HEADS DIGEST by "Jonathan T. Smillie" <jsmillie@...> on Aug 02, 1999, converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
