Over the years, I’ve tried many different recipes, but a few years ago I stumbled across THE BEST SHORTBREAD RECIPE EVER!!! I thought that I would share it with you all, since it has been such a hit in our house!

- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees (190 degrees Celsius)
- Whip butter with an electric mixer until fluffy. Stir in the confectioners sugar, cornstarch and flour. Beat on low for 1 minute, then on high for 3 to 4 minutes. Drop cookies by spoonfulls two inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
