How to Make Grandma's Shortbread
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- If desired, gently fold in sprinkles.
- Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about ½ inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to create shapes, or simply cut into squares or rectangles.
- Place the shortbread cookies onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Grandma's delicious shortbread cookies!
