serves

things you need: 1 cup | unsalted butter ½ cup | powdered sugar 1 ½ cups | all-purpose flour ¼ cup | cornstarch

instructions:

Preheat the oven to 300F degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper or baking mats. In a large bowl beat the butter and powdered sugar until very fluffy and aerated (at least 5 minutes). Combine the flour and cornstarch, and add to butter and powdered sugar.

Optional: Candied Cherries for topping

If using, chop candied cherries into quarters.

Use a dessert spoon to drop cookies onto lined baking sheet. Press a quarter of the chopped candied cherry into the top of each cookie

Bake for 14-16 minutes, or until the tops look set.

NOTE: these cookies do not really “brown” - they get a little golden on the bottom.

Optional: Use a piping bag to make smaller cookie drops or use a cookie press.
