Zubereitung von Aunt Florrie's Shortbread Cookies
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
- Gradually add the cornstarch to the butter mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add the flour, beating until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Divide the dough in half. If using cookie cutters, proceed to step 7. If making balls, proceed to step 9.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half of the dough to 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes. Place cookies onto prepared baking sheets.
- If making balls, roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Gently flatten each ball with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern, or use a small cookie press.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
