I invariably use powdered sugar and 1tbsp of cornstarch in my butter cookie formula as I notice it creates this superb, smooth, soften in your mouth texture that is simply the most effective. so butter. tons and plenty and plenty of butter.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 sticks (170g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups (210g) plain flour
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 4 tbsp icing sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2-3 tbsp multi-coloured Funfetti/sprinkles
- 2 tbsp milk
Instructions:
- Place a piece of grease proof paper into an 8x8 inch square pan and leave to one side.
- Place butter, flours, sugar, salt and vanilla into a large bowl, or the bowl of your stand mixer and beat on medium-high speed until you have a crumbly mixture which is just starting to come together. The butter will be pea sized, although some larger lumps are fine.
- Add in the Funfetti and 1tbsp of milk, then mix until well combined. Add in another 1tbsp of milk and then mix until a soft dough forms.
- Tip the dough into your lined pan and press into a level layer. Use your hands or the base of a glass/cup.
- Place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes. Whilst chilling, preheat the oven to 160C/325F and line 2 baking trays.
- Once chilled, lift out the dough from the square pan and place on a cutting board. Either with a knife, or pizza cutter (I used a pizza cutter), slice into bite size pieces. My pieces were around 1/2 an inch-3/4 inch thick. I made around 64 bites. You can make them however big or small you want.
- Separate all the shortbread bites and then place them onto your lined trays, leaving a little gap between each one.
- Place in the oven for 12-17 minutes (depending on how big they are) until they look matte when the light from the oven hits them. If they look a little dark/soggy in the light, they're are not done.
- You don't want them to be golden or coloured in anyway, just slightly firm to the touch and matte.
- Leave to cool on the trays completely, before transferring to an airtight container. Funfetti Shortbread Bites will keep at room temperature for 5 days.
