The great part about shortbread is its simplicity. But with that said, since there are so few ingredients I recommend using the highest quality you can manage. That doesn’t mean you need to go out and spend a ton of money on fancy butter, or organic flours… It just means choose ingredients that TASTE good. You might have a preference in which brand of all purpose flour you use…or butter…or vanilla…And in this case, I’d say choose your favorite. You can even splurge on a fancy European butter if you’re feeling like the splurge. This is a time when that butter makes the cookie better!
Butter. I like to use salted butter as it adds to the flavor. BUT you can absolutely use unsalted, because you do add a little more salt. I would recommend that if you use unsalted, just add 1/4 teaspoon morePowdered Sugar. Yep, just powdered sugar in this recipe, not granulated sugar. The powdered sugar is smooth and sweet, and gives the shortbread a melty texture.Flour. All purpose all the way!Salt. I use kosher salt in this shortbread recipe, as I do in most of my baking recipes.
