Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cream butter and sugar until smooth
- 2
Add flour and work it in..you may need slightly more than the one cup of flour..the goal is to have a dryish crumbly dough that comes together when pressed
- 3
Put dough onto plastic wrap, press together to form a rough log..wrap the dough tightly and form it into either a tube or a long square shape
- 4
Refrigerate for 20 minutes..meanwhile preheat oven to 325*
- 5
Unwrap dough and use a large straight knife (not serrated) to make half inch cuts...you should get 18 cookies including the ends
- 6
Bake on ungreased sheet for 10 minutes until slightly golden on the edges
- 7
Cool cookies on the hot baking sheet for three minutes...if you try to finger-test them, they will be squishy..that's good
- 8
After three minutes, remove cookies with a spatula onto either wire racks or another sheet and let cool for at least a half hour before devouring

Easy Shortbread Cookies Easy Shortbread Cookies
I revised a shortbread recipe, which I used to bake in a café in Canada. It's such an easy ratio of ingredients, so once you bake these cookies, you can make them without looking at the recipe. Feel free to adjust the amount of the ingredients as well. They can be made in 20 minutes!Once you have flipped the baking pan, keep an eye on the cookies so that they don't burn. Take the baking pan out of the oven when the cookies are light brown on the edges, and cook through with the residual heat. I recommend using butter for this recipe since they result in a richer and tastier cookie. Recipe by LazyHata cookpad.japan -

These are conventional shortbread cookies using Hattaiko (Hattai Powder) which is a roasted barley flour sold here in Japan. If you cannot get Hattaiko, you can use wholewheat flour, oat flour or barley flour instead. But the roasted nutty fragrant makes these cookies special. Miyuki Suyari -

This is a variation of a cookie recipe I found in a homemade cookie book published by Boutique.Be sure to completely chill the dough until hardened (at least 1 hour, if not for longer) for a foolproof dough. You can add some dried fruits (apricots, orange peel, maraschino cherries, etc.) in Step 4. You can skip Step 6 if you don't feel like coating the cookies in sugar. Recipe by INCE cookpad.japan -
