what an amazing easy recipe and so yummmyy be warned make sure you either only bake a few at a time or plan on having help around to eat them, cause if their in the kitchen, all alone, in the dark, sad and lonely They WILL call your name.
This recipe is also so easy to adapt, you can do cinnamon, or pecans, or chocolate, or orange etc....

Loved these. Best cookie I've ever made. It was also extrememly simple as my 5 yo helped me make them. I used a cookie icing instead of sprinkling them with sugar.

I found these shortbread very easy to make, does not need many ingredients. I made them twice in last two weeks, kids love them so good with tea or coffee. You have to like that buttery taste to enjoy them. I will make them again and again.

These are very tasty, basic, old fashioned shortbread cookies. My fiance thought they were a little too buttery for her liking and suggested that next time, we add lemon or orange zest to the dough. The simple sugar sprinkle can also be jazzed up. To add another layer of texture, instead of sprinkling sugar on some, we used tiny ball sprinkles (came out great.

I just finished baking these for a Christmas Party, using cookie cutters of trees and stars. Previous reviews are correct...The recipe was easy to follow, just make sure the butter is room temp! I too, pulled them early (between 17 & 18 min. If they are left in the full 20 minutes, they will be too brown (maybe because I rolled out dough to 1/4 inch instead of 1/2 inch. The taste is very delicate and delicious...classic shortbread! Thank you, Ina!

These come out perfectly. Two important things to note. One, make sure you use butter that is at room temperature. Two, keep your eye on them in the oven. I pulled them at 18 minutes. Any longer than that and they would have been too crisp.
In addition to Valentine's Day, I also make these for Christmas using a Christmas tree cookie cutter.

Warning! I love Ina, but please, DO NOT bake these cookies the full time or they will burn. I followed the directions explicitly and did so at the peril of my first sheet. So, the second sheet baked for 15 minutes and even then a couple of thinner ones were too brown. 13 minutes would've been adequate. I also encountered a crumbly dough that was difficult to roll, but I persevered and the cutouts held their shape long enough to make it onto the cookie sheet. Ok, and previous reviewers were right, they weren't salty enough either. I used 2 unsalted sticks and 1 salted stick of butter and it was still not salty enough. I believe a 1/2 tsp of salt would work just fine with the 2 and 1 combo or with 3 unsalted sticks. End result, the recipe needs the aforementioned tweaking to be a success, especially with a 3-stick-butter investment!

These are an excellent basic shortbread recipe. I've making it for years now and I always wow the crowd.
