Caribbee Shortbread Cookies


Ingredients

• 1 cup butter, softened

• ¾ cup powdered sugar

• ½ teaspoon Spicy Caribbee Puerto Rican Vanilla 

• 2 cups all-purpose flour

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and flour. Mix slowly until a crumbly dough forms. It may look loose at first, but when pressed together with your hands, it should hold its shape.

3. Gather the dough into a ball and roll it between parchment paper to about ⅓–½ inch thick. Cut into small circles or any desired shape and place them on the prepared baking sheets.

4. Bake for 18-20 minutes, just until the bottoms are barely golden. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a rack to cool completely.

5. Enjoy with loved ones.
