Easy 1-2-3 Shortbread Cookies

Ingredients:
butter, salted
sugars, granulated
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched

Directions:
In a large bowl, cream the butter until smooth.
Add the sugar, beating together until combined and fluffy.
Stir in the flour gently until just until incorporated.
Flatten the dough into a disk shape, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
On a lightly floured surface roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thick.
Cut out shapes using cookie cutters of your choice until all the dough is used.
Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for aproximately 10 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges.
Cool on rack and store in an airtight container.
Note: These cookies can be made with either powdered sugar or brown sugar instead of regular granulated sugar.
Each variation gives it a subtly different flavour, but they will come out just as nicely.
