Simple Whipped Shortbread image

This is an adaptation from an old Canadian Living Recipe. It is simple, a small batch, and easy to manage on a busy day. The original recipe called for Rice Flour and well as Flour, but I substituted Cornstarch just fine.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup superfine sugar or 1/2 cup icing sugar
1 pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch

Steps:

  • Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a large bowl, whip butter, sugar and salt untill fluffy.
  • Add vanilla and almond extracts.
  • Stir in flour and cornstarch a bit at a time to incorporate.
  • Form into two thick ropes, rolling on wax paper.
  • Refrigerate 30 minutes; they will be firm and easy to slice into coins.
  • Bake slices until they just begin to turn golden on the bottom.
  • I added chocolate chips to half, and they were nice too.
