Recipe Notes

whipped shortbreadLet cookies cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Cookies will be extremely crumbly while they are still warm out of the oven. Move them gently. As an option, you can also roll dough into balls and press with a fork rather than drop them onto sheets with a teaspoon.

ENJOY!
