Yes! 🇭🇺 Hungarian Shortbread — often known as “Linzer shortbread” or “Reszelt Linzer” — is a wonderfully tender, buttery treat filled with tangy fruit jam and topped with a snowy dusting of powdered sugar. What makes it special is the grated dough technique, which gives the top a light, flaky texture.
It’s beloved at holidays and tea time — simple but irresistible.
