MOM'S SHORTBREAD COOKIES

My mum's recipe for shortbread cookies. My friends would always ask for these as Christmas or birthday gifts! Can be topped with homemade butter/icing sugar frosting. You can substitute half the butter with margarine if you want. In the picture, I added a teaspoon of lemon zest and made an icing with lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice and icing sugar.

Steps:

  • Sift together cornstarch, icing sugar and flour.

  • Shape into 1 inch balls. If dough is too soft to handle, cover and chill 30-60 minutes. Place 1-1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet; flatten with lightly floured fork, Alternatively, roll dough to 1/4 inch; cut into shapes with cookie cutters.
  • Decorate with frosting, candies cherries, coloured sprinkles or nuts if desired.
  • Bake in 300F oven 15-20 minutes or until edges are lightly browned (just barely, less is more). Cool on wire rack.

  • Using a hand-held electric mixer (see notes), cream the butter, sugar, and vanilla until very creamy. Gradually beat in the cornstarch and flour. Continue to beat the batter until it looks like slightly overbeaten whipped cream, about 10 minutes. I always set a timer for 10 minutes as it feels like a long time.
  • Drop the batter by heaping tablespoons (or 3 level tablespoons, to be exact) onto the prepared cookie sheets. Add a colored cherry or dried cranberry in the center of each cookie. Note: if you don’t have 3 cookie sheets wait until you remove the baked cookies from one and it cools completely. Putting the cookie sheets outside in the cold winter weather cools them down very quickly.
  • Bake the cookies for approximately 15 minutes. You can bake two sheets at once, turning them halfway through. Remove the cookies from the oven just as they start to brown on the bottoms.

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line two lightly colored baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, add in butter, sugar, vanilla, and flour. (Be sure to fluff your flour before measuring to get an accurate measurement.) Mix slowly until a crumbly dough forms. It will look like crumbs in the stand mixer, but when squeezed together in your hands will hold its shape.
  • Form dough into a ball and roll in between parchment paper to 1/3-1/2-inch thick. Cut into small 3-inch circles (or any shape desired**) and place onto prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake 12-15 minutes or until the bottoms of the cookies are barely golden brown. Cool 5 minutes on hot baking trays before transferring to cooling racks.
