Terrible me, mine for us on New Years Eve came out of the oven half an hour before midnight.I had given my earlier made shortbread away and although I had a packet of the (cringes) bought stuff in the pantry, really didn't want to let myself down this year by not having homemade in the house.Glad I did as it was delicious.Dogs prefered the homemade as well.All shared the shortbread, but only the humans had the whiskey!

No to storage. It will go soft. Also, it's a product made with fresh butter, so will keep about as long as butter would. It starts to get a rancid taste. Mine would keep about a fortnight before you can taste the age in it. But it never lasts that long.

I was brought up to consider shortbread essential to New Year's Eve.Many many years ago my mother told me it should be made at least a week before.I can't find that suggestion anywhere.Who thinks that shortbread should be stored before eating!

Sounds as if it worked for your mother.
