Are you all discussing Bob, Bob Calder?!!! Every time he said his name I cringed!!
I made millionaires shortbread on Monday and used semolina in the shortbread mix - I won't be using that recipe again. My traditional one with sugar, flour, cornflour and butter works best.“I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.”

I have to say, although not a huge fan of shortbread I agree there is no point at all making it with margarine ( unless you are attempting some kind of vegan version ). Considering all it consists of are flour, sugar and butter you have to have decent ingredients for it to taste nice !
I've long given up watching Come Dine With Me, because almost every single contestant in every episode annoys the hell out of me :P" Baggy, and a bit loose at the seams.. "~ November 8th 2008. Now totally DEBT FREE !~0 -
yes caster sugar works fine. i actually prefer it to icing sugar in shortbread
i think we are discovering shortbread needs to be flour, butter, sugar and cornflour to meet our high standards, right?
the rice flour does make an interesting change but i prefer the cornflour version."Finish each day And be done with it.
