Three-Ingredient Shortbread Cookies

Description

This recipe is so easy and so tasty! You can dip half the cookie in chocolate once they have cooled completely. I have made these for Christmas cookies by dipping in chocolate and sprinkling with pecans. I have also used pink chocolate for baby showers.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • ½ cup superfine sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9-inch square pan with foil
  2. leaving an overhang on all sides.
  3. Mix butter and sugar together with a spoon until texture is sandy. Slowly mix in flour. Knead dough a few times until crumbly
  4. not smooth. Pat dough over the bottom of the prepared pan. Prick all over with a fork.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until set
  6. about 45 minutes. Score with a knife while still warm. Lift out foil and let cookies cool on a baking rack. Break apart on cut lines when completely cooled.
