Step 1

Add all ingredients for the shortbread cookies to a mixing bowl and stir well until a thick, sticky dough forms.

Step 2

Form the dough into a log shape and vacuum seal or wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator at least 2 hours, or freeze at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 4

Unwrap the dough and place on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut slices of dough.

Step 5

Place dough slices on the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 12 to 18 minutes, until cookies are slightly golden on the outside.

Step 6

Remove cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet completely before serving.
