Strawberry vanilla shortbread cookies... yes please! I cannot get away from strawberries at the moment especially when their on special offer at my local supermarket. These extremely simple cookies have three main elements which are fresh strawberry, vanilla butter cream and a wonderful melt and crumble shortbread. The shortbread provides the platform for the piped vanilla butter cream and sliced fresh strawberries. You have to get the sweet pastry just right, make sure to rest it in the chiller for at least 30 minutes. To give the shortbread added crunchiness dab a little water on top and sprinkle with demerara sugar. As a little aesthetic plus to these Strawberry Vanilla Shortbread Cookies I have used a lattice roller before cutting out the cookies, this looks great and encourages a more crispier finish. Be warned if your on a diet because this is a serious sugar rush, don't ask me about calories... there's a lot!
