My Shortbread Cookies

Chef Luny's Note:

ohemgee, these are melt in your mouth shortbread cookies! THE ONLY shortbread recipe you'll ever need! ...I didnt like when my mother baked them because I'd eat them all and I don't like to share! Even freezing them doesn't help as they are delicious frozen too. ...**If you dont have cake flour, its easy to make! Measure 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour. Then measure out 3 tablespoons of that flour and replace with 3 tbsp of cornstarch! Sift at least 4 times to get it well incorporated!**

• Total Time: 20 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 20

Yield: 20.0 cookies

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons cream
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups cake flour
• 2/3 cup icing sugar
• 10 teaspoons strawberry jam

Directions:

1. Preheat oven 360.
2. In a mixer stand on 2 or 4, cream butter and vanilla, then add in the cream. I do this for about 5 minutes to get creamy texture.
3. On stir or lowest stand setting, Add in the cake flour, icing sugar. Combine until you get a smooth creamy dough.
4. Spoon 2 teaspoons of dough on a parchment line pan. With a clean finger tip, poke a well in the middle of the cookie, spoon 1/2 teaspoon or less bit in of your favorite jam.
5. Bake for about 10-12 minutes until edges begin to get golden brown, like in my picture!
6. Enjoy! :).
