Number Of Ingredients 6

lb butter
1 c powdered sugar
3 c flour
1/2 c cornstarch
1 tsp vanilla
pinch salt

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Cream together butter, icing sugar, vanilla and salt. Gradually add cornstarch and flour. Whip with an electric mixer until fluffy. Roll into balls and put cookies on cool baking sheet. Flatten with a fork dipped in flour Decorate with candied cherries or dragees if desired. Bake 12-15 minutes. Let cool for 1/2 minute or so or until easy to move without breaking, on baking sheet, then remove to wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature. I use my cuisinart and just throw all the ingredients in, turn it on and it is whipped in just seconds.
  • 2. Note: Dress these up by pressing a half a candied cherry in the middle, or decorate with colored sugars or sprinkles. I sprinkle colored sugar on them as soon as I put them on the cooling rack. There is till enough heat to help the sugar stick.

These cookies are a bit bland. I think they need more sugar or vanilla extract.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies were a bit too crumbly for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I've never been a fan of shortbread, but these cookies changed my mind! They were so light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. I'll definitely be making them again.
