Notes
You can use lemon extract instead of fresh lemon juice if you run out of lemon.
Use room-temperature butter to mix well with the other ingredients.

Drizzle your shortbread with melted chocolate.
This recipe has so many flavor variations; you can flavor it with orange or almond extract instead of fresh lemon juice.
Add some chocolate chips to the batter.
