Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter 250 grams, at room temperature
- ½ cup powdered sugar 75 grams
- 1 ½ cups 1-to-1 gluten-free flour 260 grams
- ¼ cup cornstarch 40 grams
- 5 tablespoons whole milk or cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and powdered sugar with electric beaters. Add the remaining ingredients and continue to beat just until the batter looks a little like thick whipping cream, about 2-3 minutes.
- Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or a heaping tablespoon, drop the batter onto cookie sheets. If you'd like, press a cranberry on the top. Bake the shortbread for 15-18 minutes, or until the cookies are very light golden in color.
- Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely. These cookies taste best once they've cooled.
