Food - Clotted Cream & Strawberry Shortbread

Clotted Cream & Strawberry Shortbread

Hi everyone, a bake from me! Rodda's clotted cream recently have put a challenge on their packets to Bake Your Wonderful, to win some baking kits any excuse to bake for me. I decide to make clotted cream and strawberry shortbread, the essence of a cream tea in a biscuit!

I dedicated this bake to my late Granddad for his love of puddings
