Professional Baker Teaches You How To Make SHORTBREAD!

It's time to start off your shortbread education! Chef Anna Olson is a master at the fine art of baking the best shortbread, and she is hear to teach you all the steps you'll need to become a master yourself! Follow along with this video using the recipe below and then let us know how they turned out in the comments!

Ingredients

1 ¼ cup unsalted butter at room temperature
1 cup icing sugar, sifted
1 ½ tsp vanilla bean paste (or extract, if paste is not available)
1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup cornstarch
¼ tsp salt

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 F and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.

2. Beat the butter and icing sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla bean paste (or extract). It’s an important step to beat the butter and sugar well together when making shortbread – this ensures the shortbread will hold together and when you take a bite it will ‘snap’ and then melt away.

3. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, cornstarch and salt and add to the butter, mixing until blended and soft. Spoon the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large star tip (or into a cookie press). Pipe cookies about 1 ½-inches across onto the prepared baking trays and leaving an inch between each cookie. If you want a flatter cookie that spreads, bake right away. For a cookie that sits up and holds its shape, chill the piped unbaked cookies for 15 minutes before baking. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cookies just begin to brown lightly on the bottom. Cool the cookies on the trays before storing in an airtight container.

4. The cookies will keep up to a week.

Chicks & Eggs, Bunnies & Carrots- Easter Spritz Cookies

RECIPE:
Cream Cheese Spritz Cookies
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened (not melted)
3 ounces softened cream cheese
1 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Gel food coloring (liquid changes dough consistency too much)

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Combine the flour, salt, and baking soda and set aside. Cream the butter and cream cheese very well with an electric mixer on its highest setting. Well creamed butter is the basis of great spritz recipes that melt in your mouth. Next add the sugar and cream again until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and egg and mix thoroughly. Add the flour mixture a little at a time and mix until all ingredients are evenly combined , but do not over-mix as that can make spritz dough too stiff.

You can always troubleshoot a spritz dough by adding water a tablespoon at a time to stiff dry dough or adding flour a tablespoon at a time to overly sticky or soft dough. Perfect spritz dough has a soft malleable texture that is not too sticky or too stiff. Press with a cookie press.

Bake for 7 to 11 minutes. Check early and often as spritz cookies brown quickly. Let sit 2 or 3 minutes and move to cooking rack. Makes about 135 cookies.

Buttercream Decorating Icing
1/2 cup softened butter
4 1/2 to 5 cups powdered sugar- add more or less to get a good thickness
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 Tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Cream the butter with your mixer and add the other ingredients slowly, a little of each at a time and then really whip the mixture well. This should be fairly stiff, as it’s not for spreading on a cake but to make little stars for decorating.

DECORATING: Color your icing and use decorating tips to add decorations as shown.
