Best Shortbread Cookies-Period!

Delicious Chocolate Cookies

Best Shortbread Cookies-Period!

 These shortbread cookies have only 4 ingredients, are fast to make and come out so buttery.  Around the holidays,  Danish butter cookies are sold in cans but there are additives and the taste cannot compare with this recipe.  I refuse to eat the canned type as the taste is not very good.  Children can help make them and they will enjoy the process.  But the best part is eating the crispy cookies with a glass of milk or hot cocoa. Adults will keep going back for more and can easily eat 5 or 6 at a sitting. Don't lose this recipe because this may become a family tradition.  Usually cookies are pale white but if your like them brown and crispy,  just adjust the baking time. You can dip them in chocolate or decorate them with candy sprinkles to give a festive flair.  


Ingredients: 

1 lb butter, softened (no substitutions)

1 T pure vanilla

1 1/2 c sugar

 4 c flour  


Directions: 

Cream butter on high speed.  Add vanilla and gradually add sugar till well mixed.  On low speed, pour flour a little at a time until everything is smooth and well blended.  Using a # 40 ice cream scoop, drop 12 cookies on each ungreased cookie sheet.  Gently press down each cookie with the bottom of a glass.  Dip in water if dough sticks.  Bake 15 minutes at 375 degrees till edges turn golden.  If you like them darker, increase time by 5 minute increments up to 25 minutes.   Makes 4 dozen cookies.
