What’s the ideal texture for dreamy shortbread?

What’s the ideal texture for the perfect shortbread? Should it be super crumbly, or a bit chewy? I’d love to get it just right!

I think the perfect texture is a balance of crumbly and chewy. A little bit of both gives it that satisfying crunch and melt-in-your-mouth quality.

Ideal shortbread should be buttery and crumbly, with a melt-in-your-mouth texture! Perfectly tender and not too dry.

Hello! I think the perfect shortbread should be buttery and melt-in-your-mouth, though with just enough crumble to hold its shape .
