I usually have to make this recipe several times over the Christmas season as my husband loves it! Best part about this shortbread is that it’s so easy!
Whipped Shortbread (adapted from All Recipes)
1 cup softened butter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup icing sugar
maraschino cherries (if desired)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Place softened butter in a bowl, whip with a hand mixer for a minute
- Add flour 1/2 cup at a time, whipping after each addition until well incorporated
- Add the icing sugar and whip again for about 5 minutes
- Place by teaspoonfuls on cookie sheets. Decorate with maraschino cherries
- Bake in oven for 11-12 minutes, or until bottoms are lightly browned
Thank you so much for this recipe! Just tried it tonight (my first time attempting any kind of shortbread, actually) and it’s so easy. I think it’s going to be a Christmas staple from now on.
