The Recipes:

“Star Cookies”

Buttery Shortbread

1 & 1/2 cups (3 sticks) butter, softened

1 & 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

2 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

---

Directions: Beat the butter with the sugar and vanilla; then beat in the flour, a little at a time, until you have a soft, well-mixed dough. Divide the dough in half and flatten each portion into a 1-inch thick disc between pieces of waxed paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough until it’s firm enough to work with (about 3 hours). When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325 F. and lightly flour your rolling surface and rolling pin. Roll out each dough disc to a 1/4-inch thickness and cut with cookie cutters. (The star shapes are Debbie’s favorite, of course, but you can use any shape cookie cutters you like.) Arrange on ungreased cookie sheets (the butter content should keep them from sticking) and bake for 8-10 minutes, until set. Eat as is, or decorate as desired. (Makes about 3 dozen.)
