A classic holiday shortbread with a cozy little twist!
Ingredients
- 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 2/3 cups (215g) all-purpose flour
-
2/3 cup (100g) Cozy Cocoa Mix
- 1/2 teaspoon (3g) kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons (15g) cocoa nibs or 1/4 cup (40g) very finely chopped chocolate
- Sanding sugar for dusting
Directions
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until fluffy, about 2 min. Add the dry ingredients and stir until blended.
Divide the dough mixture in half and roll each half into a log approximately 2″″in diameter. Chill for about an hour, until firm.
Preheat your oven to 325°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the logs into 1/4″` slices—if they fall apart at all, just lightly push them back together. Lay each piece out flat about 1″ apart—shortbread doesn’t spread much. Sprinkle on sanding sugar.
Bake for 15-18 min, until just beginning to brown on the edges. Let cool completely before eating.
Enjoy with a cup of Cozy Cocoa!
