This recipe is actually one I haven’t tried yet, but it’s probably my absolute favorite holiday treat. Each year, Laure Kawa, my mother’s friend from work, gives us a perfectly round, delightfully buttery, fork-pricked shortbread. It’s something I look forward to each year and, one year, I’m going to try it myself, but for now, I’d just like to share with you the recipe she shared with us. 
Laure’s Shortbread
Butter (2 sticks, unsalted)
1/2 c. sugar
2 c. flourSet the butter out to reach room temperature. Mix sugar into the softened butter. Slowly add flour and knead it into a ball. Flatten it out, pull in the sides, and prick the surface with a fork. Set the oven to 300F for 50-60 minutes.
Lovely holiday shortbread from Laure!
Super easy, huh? Check out how pretty it looks when you’re done!
Happy holidays, everyone!
