Shortbread Cookies

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, Dr. Oetker Vanilla Sugar, Dr. Oetker Baking Powder, and salt until well combined. This will ensure even distribution of the baking powder for an even rise.

Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix with a hand mixer until the mixture comes together to form a smooth dough. It's important to ensure the butter is fully integrated to get that perfect shortbread texture.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll the dough into small balls and slightly flatten them with the bottom of a glass to form cookie shapes. Place them on the baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.

Preheat your oven to 180°C. Once heated, bake the cookies in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your freshly baked Shortbread Cookies!
