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.

I absolutely love Anna Olson's videos. On those rare occasions when I bake something that surprises me, in a good way, I know I owe it all to her inspiration and instruction.
Thank you Anna. You bake something without egg. I literally followed your amazing recipes and got amazing

Hi Ana! I baked these this time for Christmas. Right from the dough till the cookies are baked it's just heavenly delicious. Thank you for sharing this recipe.❤
All your recipes always turn out great, thank you for sharing and have a Merry Christmas
My home smelled amazing after I made these.... remained me of my childhood. They are delicious, love the buttery flavor and the crispy bite to them. This will be my go-to recipe for shortbread cookies. Thank you🌹
This is my fourth time making this recipe. My husband today told me “we’re out of cookies!” So here I am. Las time I added orange zest, turn out really good!

Your kitchen is heaven
Thank you for this wonderful recipe and your easy-to-follow instructions. I made these today (the spritz shortbread cookies). They are so easy to make and delicious!
Ohhhh YUM!😊 My family has made spritz for years! They are yummy! Thank you for sharing your techniques!😁
Hi Mrs Anna. Your amazing. This Ramadan I’m adding you to my prayers. I learned a lot from you.
These look so good. I love a good shortbread.n I haven't made any myself yet but I know when I do I am no skimping on the butter. Bad or cheap butter makes bad cookies.
Amazing AND easy!!! ❤ I made these today - didn’t have a big tip so used a cookie scoop, gently rolled into balls, flattened once with fork (pre-dipped in p. sugar), and did one batch right away, and one refrigerated ( whole sheet wi cookies) 15min. Both batches amazing!! Now the big star tip on my list to do it proper next time.
Awesome as always
I love how perfect you pipe the cookies. You only get out of the oven, what you put in - perfection!
Nice shortbread 👍
Loved the out come of the cookies
