India..😍

Most of you may not know the difference between shortbreads and cookies. They have the same ingredients but the ratio is what is different. Shortbreads have a high butter to flour ratio.

Steps

36 min

1

Preheat oven to 165 degree Celsius
2

Sift flour and cornflour together and set aside. I barely had some cornflour in my home so I added a bit of custard powder. It works too and gives a bit more colour. Cream butter until smooth then add sugar, vanilla and salt and beat until fluffy. Slowly add flour mixture to butter mixture, beating low until dough forms.
3

Knead in the chocolate chips. I used white chocolate chips. You can use milk or dark or even butterscotch chips (if so, change the title to butterscotch cookies LOL) according to your preference.
4

Shape dough into two equal parts. You can use cookie cutters or use hand to mould them into a desired shape or cut them into wedges.
5

Bake for 25 mins. After baking, remove them immediately so that they cool. Dont overbake since it can possibly burn the cookies.
6

Melt remaining chips or some chocolate and drizzle over the shortbreads. Enjoy !
