Honey Shortbread
These delightfully simple shortbread don’t look quite like classic shortbread but they are melt in your mouth delicious, made with honey!
Ingredients
- 1 cup soft salted butter
- ½ cup creamed honey 6 oz
- 3 cups organic all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream butter and honey with a hand mixer, then mix in flour.
- Once it's all crumbly, put your hand mixer aside and knead with your hand to make it come together.
- Divide dough into two equal parts. Roll on counter (floured if needed) into a 6x12” rectangle. I cut it in half lengthwise, then 8 ways in the other direction for a total of 16 cookies with half the dough. Repeat with the second piece.
- I baked one tray at a time. Start with 10 minutes, rotate the pan, and do 10 minutes more. They should be quite browned.
- Rest for 10 minutes and remove to a rack to cool completely.
- Bake second half of cookies on a cool cookie sheet.
Notes
- I like to weigh my honey because scooping it out of a measuring cup is a pain!
- The cookies won't have the perfect texture until they have cooled. Patience!
