Whipped Shortbread image

Fluffy, mouth watering, worth the calories. I have been cooking these cookies for about 9 years now. I bring them to christmas parties and yet to come home with any leftover. Need I say more. Hope those who try them enjoy them as much as my friends, family, and co-workers have.

Time 50m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb unsalted butter, softened
1 cup icing sugar
3 cups flour, pre-sifted
1/2 cup cornstarch

Steps:

  • With and Electric mixer, beat butter & Icing sugar until it stands up like egg whites.
  • In a seperate medium bowl, combine flour and corn starch. Add slowly to butter and icing sugar mixture. (I find when your mixer starts to power out, then use a wooden spoon to take over, but please try to use the mixer as long as possible).
  • Drop from teaspoon onto cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Top cookies with jub-jubs, bar cherries, or anything really. My oldest son loves smarties on his. Imagination is up to you.
  • Bake at 300 for approx 30 minutes until bottom edges turn a light brown.
  • (Because all ovens vary please start checking them at about 20-25 minutes).
