Jean made this very easy but delicious Whipped Shortbread Cookies. It is always a challenge using a different oven from your home. The Gilmore Park Church has a gas oven which takes a long time to heat up. Usually, we will turn the thermometer up by 50F to achieve the same result as the electric oven.
However, this Whipped Shortbread Cookie is very delicate. You really have to watch the cookies as they burn easily. We burnt the batch we made in the kitchen due to the unfamiliarity with the oven.
This batch of Whipped Shortbread Cookies were made by Jean the day before. They are so buttery and they just melt in your mouth. Great for holiday cookies exchange.

Those look really yummy!
My mom makes the best shortbread ever. The recipe just has the butter, icing sugar, flour and corn starch in it.
Shortbread is indeed delicate. But delicious, and worth the work!
Here are some hints for baking delicate items:
* Preheat the oven well ahead of time.
* Use light colored or shiny baking pans, as dark colored pans will cause more browning. (Dark absorbs heat, light reflects heat)
* If your oven tends to have “hot spots” or uneven heating, use a double pan for baking. This also works for cakes, if you are using a thin or disposable cake pan.
* Check the temperature of the oven using a separate oven thermometer.
Happy baking!
Those look so yummy
