Buttery Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Cream the Butter

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).

2. Add Vanilla & Salt

Mix in the vanilla extract and salt until combined.

3. Add Flour

Gradually add the flour, mixing just until the dough comes together. It may look crumbly at first—keep mixing until it forms a soft dough.

4. Fold in Chocolate Chips

Stir in the mini chocolate chips evenly.

5. Chill the Dough

Divide the dough into two logs (about 2 inches in diameter), wrap in plastic wrap or parchment, and chill for 30–60 minutes until firm.

6. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

7. Slice and Bake

Slice the chilled dough into 1/4-inch rounds and place on baking sheet, spaced about 1 inch apart.

Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Don’t overbake—shortbread should stay pale.

8. Cool

Let cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
