Macadamia Nut Shortbread Cookies
“Buttery, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread cookies studded with rich macadamia nuts. Each bite is perfectly sweet, crisp and delicious.” - Relle, Foodland Ambassador, Instagram: @keeping.it.relle
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups All purpose flour, sifted
- 1/2 cup Macadamia nuts, chopped
Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment add butter and sugar. Whip until light and fluffy. Then add vanilla and mix until well incorporated.
Slowly add flour and macadamia nuts. Mix until just incorporated. Scrape down sides of the bowl as needed.
Pour dough into a prepared baking pan. Spread dough to fill the pan in an even layer. Place in the refrigerator and chill for about 20 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 275F.
Cut dough into rectangles. Use a fork to poke shallow indentations in the dough. Place in an oven and bake for 1 hour.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool and ENJOY!
