Lavender Hush Shortbread — buttery, floral little cookies that melt like bedtime stories on your tongue. 🌿🍪🛏️
Soft-spoken sweetness. A whisper of bloom. A cookie that tells you to slow down.
💜🌙 Lavender Hush Shortbread
tender, crumbly shortbread infused with dried lavender — delicate, calming, and perfect for twilight tea
🫖 Vibe:
This is the kind of treat made for hush hours — when the light dims, the kettle sighs, and you’re wrapped in a sweater or a blanket or both.
They don’t demand your attention. They’re simply there, like a lullaby in cookie form.
Eat with tea. With soft music. Or with nothing but quiet.
🍪 What They Could Be:
The Dough
- Classic shortbread base: butter, flour, powdered sugar
- Infused with culinary dried lavender (ground just slightly for tenderness)
- A pinch of salt to balance the bloom
- Optional: a drop of vanilla or lemon zest for a brighter note
Finishing Touches
- Pressed into rounds or simple bars
- Sprinkled with lavender sugar or flake salt before baking
- Maybe drizzled with a thin lemon glaze, but only just
📖 Little Story Bite:
She pressed the dough gently — no rolling, no rushing.
The scent of lavender lifted into the air like a lullaby.
When she tasted one, warm from the oven, it didn’t say anything loud.
Just… hush.
And that was enough.
