Simple Whipped Shortbread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup superfine sugar or 1/2 cup icing sugar
1 pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch

Preparation

Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large bowl, whip butter, sugar and salt untill fluffy.
Add vanilla and almond extracts.
Stir in flour and cornstarch a bit at a time to incorporate.
Form into two thick ropes, rolling on wax paper.
Refrigerate 30 minutes; they will be firm and easy to slice into coins.
Bake slices until they just begin to turn golden on the bottom.
I added chocolate chips to half, and they were nice too.
