3 Ingredient Brown Sugar Shortbread Cookies

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 Cup Salted Butter (1 cup butter = 8 ounces or 240 grams)
• 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
• 2.5 Cups All Purpose Flour

Instructions

• 1 Line a baking tray with parchment paper/baking paper or a silicone mat.
• 2 Preheat oven to 356 F / 180 C

• 4 With a benchtop or handheld whisk, cream the butter and sugar together till
  lighter in color and fluffier in texture.

  can do this in the bowl, or on a clean surface.
• 7 Roll the dough onto a long roll.
• 8 Cling wrap the dough roll, and place in the fridge for 1 hour.

  bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes.
