Cookie Cutters!


By delightful dishes (Visit website)



Shortbread Cookies

1lb unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 cups flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

In large mixing bowl beat butter over medium speed until creamy.  Add in sugar 1/2 cup at a time, beat thoroughly.  Mix in vanilla.

In medium bowl mix together flour, corn starch and salt.  Gradually add to butter mixture over low speed.  Dough will be thick.

Pour dough onto parchment papered surface.  Form into a ball and cut into four pieces, this makes it easier to roll out.  

Cut into desired shapes and place on ungreased cookie sheet.  Cover with saran wrap and place in fridge for 2 hours.

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Sprinkle with sugar (optional), and bake for 20-25 minutes!  Makes about 3 dozen cookies, with a med-large cookie cutter!


Colored Sugar

1/4 cup sugar
various colors of food coloring


Measure sugar into small lidded container.  Add in 2 drops of food coloring.  Place lid on container and shake vigorously.  Remove lid and with a fork separate out any clumps that may have formed and shake again.  Add in more coloring if needed and repeat steps until desired color is reached!
