Slightly Sinful Shortbread - Splenda

Submitted by Diana 2

"I guarantee you will absolutely LOVE these cookies. Everyone I've served them to asks for the recipe. Bet they don't last a day at your house....they didn't in mine. I've tried it with butter and margarine. Butter is sooooo much better. Trust me. I originally found this on the Splenda site. Good thing I saved it, it's not there any longer for some reason."

Followed the recipe exactly and don't understand what happened. Turned out like a crumble you would use as a topping. The term my mother in law would use is

A beautifully simple recipe,that produces great results from the most basic of ingredients.... it's deliciously buttery and crumbly...and I bet you can't stop at one piece!! Made for Aus/NZ Recipe Swap Dec 2009.

Oh yes, slightly sinful and oh so delicious! How could only four ingredients produce something this good?! Amazingly easy to put together. You can't even tell that sugar wasn't used. I used unsalted real butter, softened. This is delicious shortbread. Thank you!
