Shortbread Cookies Recipe

Butter-Related Concerns | Techniques

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Yes, it's a weird temperature, but trust the experts.
2. Make sure to use real butter. None of that fake stuff, please.
3. Overmix. I mean it. Just go for it.
4. Drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until lightly golden brown.

Serving Suggestions:

• Enjoy with a cup of coffee.
• Pretend to be fancy and pair with a glass of wine.
• Use as a makeshift cookie shield to deflect judgmental glances from in-laws.
