Shortbread Fingers

On Friday 4.nov.2022, went to buy chapfan no rice lunch for him and gardenia wholemeal bread for the Elderlies although it is not his food-providing-duty day because he is the one and only bread supplier to the Elderlies. Dropped by the Elderlies' place to give them the bread and to see how they are feeling today.

210 g Royalty Shortbread Fingers or Shortbread Cookies. Shopee has sellers selling this pack of shortbread Fingers at MYR 7.50 only. Very buttery and crumbly. I can smell the butter when I opened the packaging.

Shortbread Fingers are very buttery and very, very crumbly. This is because it has less sugar than Butter Cookies which is not so crumbly. It also doesn't use any baking powder or baking soda.

The main difference between English shortbreads and Scottish shortbreads is that Scottish shortbreads may contain vegetables shortenings or a blend of vegetables shortenings and butter.

Which do you prefer to eat - shortbreads or butter cookies?

12.04 noon - his chapfan no rice MYR 11 from a nearby chapfan roadside shed, used to be under a big tree but they have relocated across the road, opposite shell station, so that the local council could cut down the big tree.

10.51 am - yesterday he selected two ripe ready-to-eat MYR 6.99 each avocados at De Market supermarket and shared one with me this morning. Very creamy and tasty! 😋 Now he is the one selecting the avocados because he has confidence to select ripe ready-to-eat ones.

  1. I haven't eaten butter cookies or shortbreads for a long time. I think I have forgotten the taste. His chapfan without rice looks yummy. My hubby will not totally avoid the avocado.

    1. Ya, if long time didn't eat, will forget the taste. What is it about the taste of avocado that he doesn't like?

  2. I like butter shortbreads. Long time didn't have that. Don't think I try this brand before.
