COOK’S NOTES
This one doesn’t state the baking temperature but most Scottish shortbread recipes are normally baked at 325 degrees.
I am not sure why the recipe states to cut into shapes and the at the end state to cut the cookies while warm. Anyone?

Cut into Shapes OR press dough into a 9x9x2 pan...You would cut the shortbread baked in the pan into desired squares while still warm in the pan, so that they can be easily separated once cooled. It's a crumbly mess if you try to cut shortbread once completely cooled.
