Q.
Which homemade cookies do we Canadians crave the most?

.

A.

In February, Food Network Canada analysed their considerable data to unearth the cooking channel’s most popular cookie recipes of all time. The winner? Good old-fashioned shortbread.

Fittingly, in the 1944 ‘Canadian Favourites Cookbook’, Mrs. Jane Montgomery from Victoria, B.C. offers the following tips:

• ‘Too much butter makes shortbread greasy, too little makes it floury and dry.’
• ‘Too much sugar makes it hard.’
• ‘Good shortbread melts in the mouth.’ 👌🏼
