Melt-in-Your-Mouth Shortbread Directions:
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and mix well. Combine flour, cornstarch, and salt in a separate bowl, then gradually incorporate into the butter mixture until a soft dough forms.
- Divide the dough into two portions and roll each into a log about 2 inches thick. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice dough into 1/4-inch rounds and arrange on the baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Once cooled, enjoy with tea or coffee!
