Nothing fancy schmancy about these Chocolate Shortbreads. They may look it because of their wavy edges, but they are just plain chocolaty goodness.

What You'll Need

  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sifted powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cold butter, diced
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

What to Do

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Process first 4 ingredients in a food processor until blended. Add butter and vanilla; process until mixture forms a ball, stopping to scrape down sides.
     
  2. Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface; cut into 1-inch by 3-1/2-inch strips, using a fluted pastry cutter or sharp knife. Place 1-inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake strips 18 to 22 minutes. Cool 1 minute on baking sheets; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

No fancy cookie cutters for these wavy, shapely shortbread cookies. Just roll out the dough and whip out a fluted pastry cutter to cut wavy-edged cookies in record time.
