Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp dried lavender
- Lavender Sea Salt for sprinkling
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mix in Flavorings: Stir in the vanilla extract and dried lavender, then gradually mix in the flour until fully combined. The dough will be soft and slightly crumbly.
- Shape the Dough: Press the dough evenly into a baking dish or a lined square pan. Use a knife to lightly score the dough into squares for easy cutting after baking.
- Add the Finishing Touch: Sprinkle the top generously with Lavender Sea Salt for a fragrant and savory-sweet contrast.
- Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Cool and Cut: Allow the shortbread to cool completely before cutting along the scored lines. This helps the cookies hold their shape.
