Shortbread Cookies
Shortbread Cookies are a classic cookie that is often overlooked. I was always the weird one who ordered a box of shortbread cookies while others were ordering caramel delights and thin mints. I had no idea making Shortbread Cookies was so easy. Three simple ingredients come together in just a few minutes. You could be enjoying a Shortbread Cookie about 20 minutes after you print this recipe.
My sister thought these would be better with some sprinkles on them. In fact, she rolled some of her Snickerdoodles in sparkly sprinkles and we dubbed them Sparkledoodles. But I digress. I do agree that these could be made even more festive by rolling the edges in some sprinkles.

I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
I LOVE LOVE LOVE brownies!!! Will definitely try out this recipe… soon.
(Just can’t let my husband know, who is a personal trainer, lol!)
These were seriously the best brownies ever! I can’t wait to re-use this recipe!
Those look outrageously delicious!!!
I love me a good brownie – but can you believe that I haven’t actually made homemade brownies. I really must change that!!
Who doesn’t love brownies?! I don’t know if I could wait a whole night and not devour these immediately out of the oven!
Yum! I love brownies! I’m thinking I actually might make some right now 🙂
You have way more willpower than I do. I rarely let brownies cool. I love when they’re warm and gooey… and yes, then throw some vanilla ice cream and hot fudge and whipped cream on top!
I was good, and I let my KAF brownies rest overnight though.

HAHA, I totally cracked up at this post for two reasons: I love that you used the expression “Get outta town!” and that you posted the pic of our brownies that were, the best brownies ever. See? We just knew..
Great post, as always!
These look sinfully delicious 🙂
