Add all of the ingredients to a stand mixer and beat until a thick cookie dough forms. You want it to be the same consistency as regular cookie dough.

Transfer the cookie dough to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour.

When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll a piece of dough into a ball that’s about 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter, then press it into a round disc shape. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then repeat for the rest of the dough. Use a fork to poke a couple holes in each dough disc.

Bake 12 to 16 minutes, until cookies are slightly golden on the outside.

Remove the shortbread from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet completely before serving.
