Cómo preparar Grandma Little's 50 Year Old Shortbread Recipe

  1. Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F). Line baking trays with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 225g (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter until light, fluffy, and airy. (An electric mixer is helpful here!)
  3. Add 100g caster sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons cornflour. Beat on low speed until just combined. (High speed will make a mess!)
  4. Sift in 300g plain flour and gently stir until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a log (approximately 25cm long).
  6. Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap or foil. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
  7. Remove from the fridge and let the logs sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Unwrap and cut each log into 15 slices (about 1.5cm thick).
  8. Place the shortbread slices onto the prepared baking trays, leaving some space between each.
  9. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  10. Let the shortbread cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Once completely cool, sift a generous amount of icing sugar over the top.
