Bake for 12 - 15 minutes in preheated oven.

Tips & Variations

These cookies are extremely fragile. It is important to let them cool completely on the pan prior to moving to a cooling rack.
Always pipe or scoop cookies on cool pans. The high ratio of butter will melt and spread on a hot pan before they have a chance to set up in the oven.
Make sure to whip the mixture until it’s light and fluffy. This is a whipped cookie and requires a long mixing time to achieve desired texture.
Store baked shortbread cookies in an air-tight container with parchment between each layer.
