🎼 The Best LENNIE'S SPECIAL SHORTBREAD

This easy LENNIE'S SPECIAL SHORTBREAD Recipe. Step-by-Step. is perfect for busy families. Comes together quickly with a few staple ingredients!

INGREDIENTS

1 cup butter, cold 1?2 cup icing sugar 1?2 cup cornstarch 1 1?2 cups flour 1?2 teaspoon vanilla

DIRECTIONS

Chop cold butter into chunks. In cuisinart fitted with metal blade, process butter with icing sugar until well creamed, about one minute; you may have to scrape down the sides. Add remaining ingredients and process with several on/off turns, just until dough is well mixed and begins to gather together in a ball around the blade. What I do now is wrap this dough in wax paper and put it in the fridge, and make up a second batch with the remaining 1/2 pound of butter (1 cup butter= 1/2 pound); I then put that dough in the fridge and proceed with the first batch I made. Raw dough keeps well in the fridge for several days. Shape rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into small balls. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet (shiny is best) and flatten, using a fork dipped in icing sugar, cookie press dipped in icing sugar, or a cherry or nut (halved). I often put coloured sprinkles or coloured sugars on top of cookies before baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes, watching carefully; edges should be very lightly browned. Yield: 40-50 cookies.
