Make the Shortbread Cookies
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. 3. Add the vanilla extract and mix well. 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. 6. Roll the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, flattening gently with the bottom of a glass. 7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
