At the Castle Marne, we always make every effort to accommodate our guests' special dietary needs. We are happy to try out new recipes and techniques to make sure everyone has the chance to enjoy our delicious homemade food.
Try this version of our classic shortbread for a sweet treat anyone can enjoy:
Ingredients
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, softened
1/2 cup Splenda
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1/8 tsp salt
Using an electric mixer, cream butter, Splenda, and vanilla and almond extracts together in a medium-sized bowl. In a separate bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, and salt until well-blended. Cut flour mixture into butter mixture using a pastry fork until a cohesive dough has formed. Press dough into the bottom of a greased pie pan and slice before baking. Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles or raw sugar for a pretty finish. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 12 minutes or until firm. Let cool for at least 20 minutes, then reslice and serve.
Keep in mind that goods baked with Splenda will bake faster than with normal sugar, and will not appear to brown in the oven.
Happy sugar-free baking!
