PETTICOAT TAILS
This variation on our Classic Shortbread got their name either from their likeness to frilly underskirts or a mispronunciation of the French petites gatelles (little cakes).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees, with rack in upper third. Sift flour and salt into a bowl; set aside. Put butter into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl. Gradually add sugar; beat until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture all at once; mix until just combined.
- Using plastic wrap, press dough into a buttered 10-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. With plastic on dough, refrigerate 20 minutes.
- Cut out a round from center using a 2 1/4-inch cookie cutter; discard. Put cutter back in center. Cut dough into 8 wedges; prick all over with a wooden skewer. Refrigerate 20 minutes.
- Sift 1 tablespoon granulated sugar over top. Bake until golden brown and firm in center, about 1 hour. Transfer pan to a wire rack. Recut shortbread into wedges; let cool completely in pan. Can be stored in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.
PETTICOAT TAILS
Quite delicious! Very delicate and dainty. Petticoat Tails can be tinted, use a few drops of red food coloring for pink cookies or a few drops of green for a minty green cookie (add mint flavoring).

POPPY SEED SHORTBREAD PETTICOAT TAILS
I am a fan of shortbread, I love the crumbly, buttery goodness of shortbread. It's even pretty and trendy when poppy seeds are added into the mix. I do not suggest using a hand mixer unless you are extremely careful of the flour and powdered sugar. Please note this recipe uses a mould for shortbread.

Steps:
- Put the butter, sugar and peppermint essence in a food processor and whizz until pale and creamy. Add the flour, cornflour and salt, and pulse until the mixture clumps together into small pieces. Tip onto a lightly floured work surface and bring the dough together as a ball, but don't overwork it. Roll the dough to a 25cm circle, about 1cm thick. Trim around a large plate to give a really neat edge. Transfer to a large baking sheet. Use 2 fingers to crimp all the way around the edge of the dough then, using a fork, mark dotted lines to portion the shortbread into 8 wedges. Put the tray in the fridge and chill for at least 30 mins.
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cook the shortbread for 25 mins until golden and cooked through. Leave to cool completely on the tray. To decorate, place a lacy doily over the shortbread and dust with a generous layer of icing sugar. Pull the doily away to reveal the beautiful lacy pattern. Keep in a tin for up to 5 days.
