Hey guys, how’s everyone doing? I am doing extra fine because check out what came out of the kitchen (well the fridge actually) just now😊
Peppermint shortbread cookies with chocolate bottom!
My 3 yo cannot stop stealing the cookies. He likes them better without the chocolate bottom tho.
I am packing them for our cookie-parcels to gift away. They are pretty simple to make btw!
Ingredients
- 1 c golden vegetable shortening
- 3/4 c icing sugar
- 2 c cake & pastry flour (regular white is fine as well)
- peppermint/creme de menthe oil, as needed (well if you what the same flavor, if not, you can use almond, vanilla, etc!)
How To
- Cream shortening and icing sugar
- Beat in flour a little at a time, followed with flavoring oil
- Roll dough and cut with your favorite cutter, place on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Preheat oven to 350 F
Now here comes the not so cute part!
I wanted to imprint the cookies, aren’t these cute?
- Bake them for 9-10 minutes.
Not so much after baked! Imprints gone 😂 So I had to make do with fork 😂
- Cool cookies completely before removing from sheet.
Chocolate Bottom
- Melt 1 c dairy free choc chips
- Spread melted chocolate on parchment lined sheet and top with cookies
- Chill for 30 minutes.
Voila 😊
