Hey guys so this recipe I am giving a face lift by adding some pictures that I took this morning while whipping up a batch of whipped shortbread cookies….(pun intended) 🙂 These are one of the greatest cookies that I have ever come across, so simple but so good! Thanks to my mom who first introduced me to these yummy cookies. I remember her always making these during the holidays. These cookies are so delicate that they will literately melt in your mouth as you eat them. So delicious 🙂 Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Start out with all purpose flour, icing sugar (sifted), butter and red and green sprinkles for toppings.
Cream butter first, using the paddle attachment for your mixer. Then add in flour and icing sugar. Using your whisk attachment, mix all ingredients together on medium high speed for 10 minutes.
Once 10 minutes is up, using a spoon drop cookies onto a baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper. Now add your toppings.
Bake for 7 minutes at 350 degrees, watching that your bottoms do not brown to quickly. Let cookies rest on baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Just to make sure they have set.
