SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Ingredients:
1 cup (240g) salted Butter, room temperature
1/2 cup (60g) icing Sugar, sifted
1 1/2 cups (225g) all-purpose Flour
1/2 cup (60g) Cornstarch/maziena
Option 1/2 cup blanched almonds

Method:
Preheat your oven to 150C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large bowl cream together the soft butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Add in the sifted flour and cornstarch and mix until the dough just comes together.
Turn the dough out onto a counter dusted with powdered sugar and gently roll the dough into a long two by a two-inch log.
Wrap the log of cookie dough in plastic wrap and allow to firm up in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Once the dough is firm slice the cookies into desired rounds.
Place each round on your baking tray and bake for 15 minutes or until just golden.
Allow cooling slightly before transferring to a cooling rack.
