How many trays do you want to bake?
These cinnamon shortbreads are a real highlight in the cold season! They smell wonderfully of cinnamon and honey, are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Thanks to the special baking technique—first at high heat, then gently baking—they achieve their perfect golden brown color and the delicate, buttery flavor that simply tastes like cozy winter days.
