Steps:
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper (or aluminum foil). Beat butter, salt, pwd sugar and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. Add in flour 1 cup at a time until dough forms. Fold in ½ C. mini chocolate chips. Preheat oven to 350. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least 20 minutes. Form dough into "fingers" using your hands-1/2 inch thick, length-2-3 inches works well. If dough gets too soft, just put in frig to chill again. Place cookies on sheet ¼ inch apart. Bake 8-10 minutes (mine were closer to 10-12) or until bottoms become golden brown (mine never did get very brown). Remove to wire rack to cool. While they are cooling, melt ½ C. chips (semi sweet or milk chocolate-your preference. I made some of each kind) in a small, heavy pot. Immediately dip one end of the cookie into the chocolate. Let the cookies set, about 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container.
Tips:
- Use high-quality butter and chocolate for the best flavor.
- Make sure the butter is cold before creaming it with the sugar. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before dipping them in chocolate. This will help the chocolate set properly.
- Use a variety of toppings to decorate the cookies. Some popular options include sprinkles, chopped nuts, and candy.
Conclusion:
Chocolate dipped shortbread fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create these delightful cookies that are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give this recipe a try.
