Ingredients:
For the Shortbread:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white whole-wheat flour
- 1 Tablespoons Casa M Spice Co® Jerked Chain®
- 1 cup butter
- 1/2 cup turbinado sugar
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
- 1/2 Tablespoon vanilla extract
For the Garnish:
- Turbinado to sprinkle on top while warm.
Let's Get Cooking:
- Combine all dry ingredients into a stainless mixing bowl.
- Melt the butter just to the point where it liquifies (i.e., NOT HOT), add the vanilla extract to the butter, and mix well.
- Add the butter/vanilla mixture to the stainless bowl and, using a silicone spatula, incorporate the two without overworking the dough.
- Turn the dough out into a 9"x9" baking pan lined with parchment paper that overhangs (for easy removal).
- Press the dough (with the spatula) flat and level. Don't forget the corners.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes until the top is golden and beautiful.
- Remove from the oven and let cool very briefly.
- Using a fork, mark the cookies in rectangles, squares, diamonds, or whatever shape you prefer, then gently lift the dough out of the pan onto a cutting board and cut the cookies on the parchment using a very sharp knife. Let cool overnight if possible...
