#4 Favourite Cookie Batter: Shortbread

Kudos to the cookie that almost taste the same pre-oven! The only thing that separates this batter from its cookie counterpart is a slight crumbling when that buttery dough hits your mouth… ahem, where was I?

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter
  • ½ cup icing sugar
  • ½ cup corn starch
  • 1 ½ cup flour
  • ½ tsp. vanilla
  1. Chop butter into chunks then process with icing sugar in a food processor with the blade until well creamed.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and process until just mixed. (Optional: refrigerate the dough while you make another batch.)
  3. Shape rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into small balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet and flatten using a fork then sprinkle with decorative sugar.
  4. Bake at 350ºF for 10-12 minutes; watching carefully until edged are lightly browned.
