Have you seen Ted Lasso? If the answer is yes, I know you need to bake this Scottish Shortbread Cookies, the delicious tea cookies they enjoy in each chapter. The cookies Ted bakes are also called shortbread, they are homemade Scottish cookies, made with butter and perfect to serve with a good tea.
If you have come to this post looking for a recipe for shortbread cookies, don’t worry, you will not be disappointed, but if you take the excuse to look for the series Ted Lasso I think you are going to be pleasantly surprised.
Ted Lasso has been for me one of the best last year surprises. It is a TV serie available on Apple TV+. Ted Lasso is about an English soccer team, always with humor. The players, and its protagonist, Jason Sudeikis, have been for me two pleasant surprises in recent months, if you are thinking that soccer is not your thing, it doesn’t matter, you will love the series anyway.
The first secret behind Ted Lasso is its great soundtrack, it’s full of classic songs that you never get tired of listening to, and an original soundtrack by Marcus Mumford of Mumfod & Sons and Jeff Tweddy.
The second secret in Ted Lasso are their butter cookies recipe, I have found a lot of literature about them, and I go for the following recipe, with a touch of rice flour or cornstarch, that makes these cookies the best cookies with perfect texture, crunchy and firm.
To bake Ted Lasso-style Scottish shortbread cookies I was inspired by a recipe from Anna Olson for which you need a basic ingredient that will make them crispy: rice flour (white rice flour, not brown rice flour).
This ingredient is easy to find nowadays in many supermarkets, I recommend you to take a look in the gluten-free area to find it.
These Scottish butter cookies do not have yeast, and to prepare them we will use pastry flour, rice flour and light brown sugar getting an incredible texture, crunchy and tender at the same time.
You will not be able to stop eating cookies, as Rebecca, Ted’s boss, and one of the main TV series character.
To bake your shortbread cookies you will also need a round or squared baking pan. The shape does not matter, but we will place the cookie dough in the mold looking for a thickness of about 1 cm wide, if the baking mold is very big you can double the cookie dough recipe.
Another essential ingredient is good quality butter, it is basic for you to get a good result in your cookies.
For me this recipe that adds rice flour to the pastry flour is the closest recipe to Walkers cookies I have tried, with its firm texture and great buttery flavor.
I recommend using a mold, I use the ones I have to bake brownies.
Once you have placed the cookie dough in the mold you can shape the cookies with the help of a fork and a knife, and repeat the operation when the cookies come out of the oven and are still tender, so when they cool you can cut the cookie dough into the shape you like without any difficulty.
If the mold is elongated, as in my case, I recommend you to make elongated cookies, and if you use a round cake mold, you can make triangle-shaped cookies.
If you are a cookie lover, here are several options for easy cookie recipes just in case you need some inspiration:
