Easter Shortbread Cookies

this recipe!

I always love a tray of cookies on the Easter dinner table. It always seems to add bright Easter colors that we love.

This has become one of my go-to holiday cookie recipes that I make and change up the color of the sprinkles and decorating.

I hope you enjoy them at much as we do!

• four simple ingredients, plus sprinkles
• no fancy equipment required! You can make these entire by hand without using a mixer
• they are DELICIOUS!! They store and freeze well. Perfect for gift-giving.

The full recipe card and instructions is located at the bottom of this page.

• butter should be at room temperature but not too soft. Do not soften the butter in the microwave! The cookies will spread. Take the butter out of the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes before you start the recipe.
• all-purpose four - use the scoop and level method to measure the all-purpose flour.

Start by preheating the oven to 300°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, cornstarch and powdered sugar. Set aside.

Add in the butter, mixing by hand until a soft dough forms. Roll into one-inch balls and place on prepared baking sheet.

Bake in 300°F oven for 15 to 20 minutes. The edges will be very lightly browned. Cool on cookie sheet for one minute, the transfer to wire cooling rack.

Store shortbread in airtight container for up to four weeks.

Shortbread may be frozen between layers or parchment paper in a freezer safe container. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
