The following is a list of the ingredients needed to prepare this recipe. For exact amounts and measurements, refer to the printable recipe card located near the bottom of this post.
Butter – Make sure your butter is at room temperature! To be perfectly honest, I have made these with both salted and unsalted butter and there’s no difference in taste or appearance once all is said and done. Use what you have on hand.
Confectioner’s Sugar – This will add a bit of sweetness, but more importantly it will add to the melt-in-your mouth texture.
Vanilla Extract – Probably the most common extract and the most common flavouring used in cakes and cookies.
Flour – No need for anything special. Just use regular all-purpose flour. I have not tried this recipe with any other type of flour.
Cornstarch – When added to cake, cookie and shortbread recipes, cornstarch helps create a crumbly and tender dessert-like texture. In this case, it creates the melting texture too.
Salt – This is a common ingredient in baking and cooking. In baking it helps to enhance and balance sweetness.
