Velvet Shortbread Cookies



Ingredients:
1 lb butter
1 ½ cups icing sugar (sifted)
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
  1. Cream butter
  2. Add icing sugar and cream well
  3. Sift flour & baking powder, add to batter and mix well – you might want to use your hands to combine last half of flour mixture. Work it in until smooth.
  4. Divide in two. I sometimes form a log, after chilling I slice with a sharp knife about 1/8th to ¼ inch slice.
  5. Or Roll out dough and use cookie cutters
  6. Place on greased cookie sheet
  7. Bake at 325 degrees until lightly browned (about 10-12 minutes)
  8. Stores well in air tight tins or freeze after cooking
