I love this recipe. It is easy and quick and the cookies come out great! Thank you!

this recipe does not roll out well like I had hoped but it is very delicious. I rolled the dough into a small ball in my palm and flattened it with 2 fingers on the cookie sheet. Everyone at my christmas party enjoyed these.

These were awesome I melted some semi-sweet chocolate chips and added some margerine to the melted chocolate to make it easy to drizzle over the cookies, I also dipped some in the chocolate very pretty and tasty!!

Fabulous shortbread, and truly light and melt in your mouth is you beat the butter first for about 5 minutes, and then beat 10 more minutes after adding the rest of the ingredients. Decorated with red and green crystal sugar. Thanks!

These cookies turned out fabulous. The flavor was perfect. We also made a second batch with 1 Tbs of Rose water, and made thumb print cookies filled with strawberry preserves. ***The butter should only be creamed about 5 minutes. Any more than that and you're cookies are going to spread and fall horribly.

Very, very good! : )

Delicious! Soooo melt in your mouth!

These just did not turn out at all! I followed the recipe to a "T" only modification being the addition of 1tsp of vanilla as per other comments. Whipped the butter for approx. 20 minutes until nice and white, etc. The result - the garbage can!

These cookies were delicious and they melted perfectly in my mouth! Great recipe!! I defineately recommend to anyone who loves shortbread!

I am actually right in the middle of baking these cookies. They are absolutely delicious and are true to the claim of melting in your mouth. After reading the other reviews, and tasting the batter, I made a few alterations. I did mix the butter for a very long time (15 min) to give it a whipped cream like consistency. The batter tasted a bit starchy so I added a 1/2 t. of almond extract. I baked them at 350 for about 10-12 min. One warning: once you add the dry ingredients, the batter is extremely dense, so make sure you have a strong mixer that can handle it. Regardless, I will definitely be making these cookies again!

Not bad at all~ I usually am not too good at making shortbread but I whipped these like crazy 350 in the oven 8 n' 3/4mins and they came out fine~ only thing is that it sounds real tasty with a little more sugar, almond extract & vanilla would have made them perfect.. Next time.. Thanks!

I made these as directed and they were a little bland for me. On the second cookie sheet I made the cookies, put a thumbprint in the middle and added apricot preserves. Very Good!

these cookies are pure yummy-ness. just keep watching them because the burn fast, once the edges are a little golden take them out of the oven quick! also preheat at 350 :]

This is the best shortbread recipe I have ever used. These are total melt-in-your mouth cookies and so simple to make. They are fool proof. I omit the cornstarch; only because the first time I made these I didnt have cornstarch. And now that I know how well they turn out without it, I've never bothered to use it. Tips: beat the butter and sugar together for at least 2 or 3 minutes. The same again when you add the flour. These are THE favourite at our house!

Decided to give this recipe another chance. I did not like it the first time. I followed the recipe to a T and it came out bland and dry and just not good. This time, I added in 1/4 cup more confectioner sugar, I also added in 2 tsp of vanilla extract and blended it all for alot longer. The taste was greatly improved and the cookies weren't crumbling like they were before.

These are easy fab! Added vanilla, rolled them into balls, flattened them with the bottom of a cup and put sprinkles and red glazed cherries. Baked for 10 min at 350..melt in your mouth and were not crumbly!

This is the very best shortbread recipe I have ever used!!! It defintely deserves 5 stars! I rolled my cookies into small balls before baking, instead of spooning them onto the cookie sheet. Very delicious! Just pop 'em in your mouth and enjoy the wonderful taste of Christmas!
