This is sister S.'s shortbread recipe. She is the queen of seasonally-decorated cookies.
Ingredients:
1 pound salted butter (softened to room temperature)
1 cup icing sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 cup cornstarch
3 cups flour
Mix butter and sugars together, then stir in cornstarch and flour until well mixed. Roll dough into 4 logs and chill about an hour. Cut logs into 1 cm slices. I usually get 4 dozen cookies from this recipe. Bake cookies on parchment lined baking sheets, at 350, until just slightly golden on bottom edges, about 12-15 minutes. Cool.
Ice cookies to suit the season with coloured icing, or chocolate.
