About Shortbread cookies from Brittany

Shortbread cookies from Brittany are regional butter-rich biscuits commonly associated with Breton sablés. They are typically round, relatively thick, and crumbly, with a rich buttery flavour; recipes and commercial versions vary in sweetness, thickness, and surface decoration.

They are baked until set and lightly coloured, and are sold as individual biscuits or packaged cookies. The crumbly texture comes from a high proportion of fat relative to the flour, but the exact ingredients differ among recipes and makers. This regional cookie should not be treated as a fixed formulation or as generic shortbread.
