How to make eggless spiced shortbread known as Tosset Cake
In short: Discover the simple process for crafting Tosset biscuits, a spiced shortbread that requires no eggs. This video demonstrates how to combine basic pantry staples into a firm, pale, and delicious treat.
The video explores the preparation of Tosset cakes, which are similar to Goosnargh cakes or standard spiced shortbread. The recipe relies on a base of butter, sugar, and all-purpose flour, enhanced by seeds crushed in a mortar and pestle.
To achieve the correct texture, the dough is formed into a disk and rested in the fridge for approximately one hour. Once rolled to a thickness of roughly 1/4 inch and cut into circles, the biscuits are baked at 180ºC (350ºF) for 10 to 15 minutes until they are firm and pale.
