Whipped Shortbread Cookies-Buttery cookies that are melt in your mouth delicious! Only 4 main ingredients are needed and they can be decorated anyway you wish.

Just a heads up...you may eat large quantities of these amazing cookies.  🖒

You have been warned!

Ingredients Needed

• Butter
• Flour
• Powdered sugar
• Cornstarch
• Vanilla

Additional Products I Used:

• Chocolate Chips
• Rainbow Sprinkles
• Food Dye Gel
• Lavender Finishing Sugar

Your basic cookie is just 5 ingredients and are delicious.  However, you can switch up this recipe anyway you wish and make them your own.  

A Few Ideas for Switching Things Up:

• Replace the vanilla flavor/extract with our favorite flavor.  For example, lemon flavoring, orange flavoring or almond extract.
• Dye the dough in different colors.
• Top with sprinkles ( do this before baking) or roll the dough in sprinkles before baking.
• Melt chocolate chips and coat half your cookie into the melted chocolate.   You can also use the melted chocolate to add a chocolate drizzle on top.
• Sprinkle tops with coarse sugar (see above for the lavender option I used!)

Storage:  Keep any leftover cookies in a covered container.  They are best eaten in a week.
