This recipe is so easy and so tasty! You can dip half the cookie in chocolate once they have cooled completely. I have made these for Christmas cookies by dipping in chocolate and sprinkling with pecans. I have also used pink chocolate for baby showers.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Line a 9-inch square pan with foil, leaving an overhang on all sides.

Mix butter and sugar together with a spoon until texture is sandy.

Slowly mix in flour.

Knead dough a few times until crumbly, not smooth.

Pat dough over the bottom of the prepared pan.

Prick all over with a fork.

Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 45 minutes.

Score with a knife while still warm.

Lift out foil and let cookies cool on a baking rack.

Break apart on cut lines when completely cooled.
