Chocolate Shortbread Cookies

I admire shortbread cookies for their creative potential. This is something I came up with yesterday. They are easy to make and satisfy the sweet tooth nicely. This recipe is very similar to my earlier post on shortbread cookies with raspberry preserves ; YUMM! Cost to Make: $2 to $3 Servings: Makes about 35 individual cookies

📝 Preparation Steps

Preheat Oven to 350°F.

In the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until they are combined. Scrape down the bowl as necessary. Add the vanilla.

In a separate bowl, mix together flour and salt and add it to the sugar/butter mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together.

Place dough on a lightly floured surface and shape into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate about ⏱️ 30 minutes.

Use 1/2 of the dough at a time, keeping the second half refrigerated. On a floured surface, roll the dough out about 1/8” thick.

Use cookie cutters to stamp out your cookies. Have a sharp spatula or food scraper on hand to pick up the cookies easier.

Place all cookies on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 12 to ⏱️ 15 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown.

Let cookies cool to room temperature, or you can refrigerate them.

Melt 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave or stove top according to package instructions.

Use a butter knife to cover half of each cookie top with chocolate. Refrigerate them at least ⏱️ 30 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens. Once the chocolate hardens, you can stack them in Tupperware and refrigerate for a few days.
