This is one of my favorite cookie recipes. Ever.
If you have been looking for the perfect, melt in your mouth, shortbread recipe, this is it! These are so quick to make. I dump everything in my Kitchenaid and then walk away for 10 minutes while it does all of the hard work. You can put this dough in a cookie press, but I find it easiest to put the dough in a piping bag and use one of my large icing tips to pipe the cookies onto the cookie sheets. These cookies are delicious on their own, but I think that everything tastes better with icing. I use my favorite buttercream recipe to add a dollop of icing on each cookie.
Whipped Shortbread
1 cup of butter, softened
1 ½ cups flour
½ cup icing sugar
Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, whip
for at least 10 minutes. Pipe onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 325 for about 10 minutes.
Who wants to go bake cookies now?
