Ruby Chocolate Shortbread

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Tip: To prevent the shortbread from spreading, ensure the baking sheet is chilled.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

   Tip: Use an electric mixer to speed up the process.

3. 3

   Gradually add the flour, salt, and ruby chocolate to the bowl, mixing until a dough forms.

   Tip: Be careful not to overmix the dough.

4. 4

   Fold in the ruby chocolate chunks.

   Tip: This will distribute the chocolate evenly throughout the shortbread.

5. 5

   Squeeze the dough into a rectangle shape on the prepared baking sheet.

   Tip: Use your hands or a spatula to shape the dough evenly.

6. 6

   Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

   Tip: Keep an eye on the shortbread during the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent overcooking.

7. 7

   Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.

   Tip: This will help the shortbread set and make it easier to cut.

8. 8

   Transfer the shortbread to a wire rack to cool completely.

   Tip: Cut the shortbread into desired shapes or squares.
