Shortbread Cookies are a classic cookie recipe everyone should know.

They’re simple in appearance, but their rich, buttery flavor makes it impossible to eat just one!

INGREDIENTS

All-purpose flour Powdered sugar Kosher salt Vanilla extract Unsalted butter

Beat the butter and vanilla extract in a stand mixer using the paddle attachment until creamed. Add the confectioners’ sugar and salt and mix until combined.

1

Scrape down the bowl and add the flour ¼ cup at a time while beating on low speed.

2

Scrape down the bowl again, then transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and pat it into a rectangle. Wrap and chill for at least an hour, or until firm.

3

Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 1/2-inch-thick slices or cut the dough with a cookie cutter.

4

Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies sit on the cookie sheet for a minute before transferring them to wire racks to finish cooling.

5

Transfer the cookies to a rack to cool completely. Then, enjoy!
