{"0":"Cream butter with the two sugars, then slowly add remaining ingredients. If the dough does not seem to take shape and remains crumbly, add a small amount more of the vanilla extract. Pat onto small ungreased cookie sheet to approx. 1\/2 inch thickness. With a fork poke a symmetric area of holes into the dough to resemble the appearance of storebought shortbread. Bake in 325 degree (convection) oven for approx. 25 min.","1":"Sprinkle some granulated sugar on the shortbread as soon as it comes out of the oven and cut into small bars immediately. Enjoy!","3":"Note: you may substitute another liquid in place of the vanilla (e.g. rose water, lavender syrup etc.) depending on what subtle flavor you will want to enjoy."}
