Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place cold butter, sugar, rosemary, salt, and vanilla extract in bowl. Combine with the back of a spatula or spoon, slowly incorporating ingredients together until butter has softened somewhat and ingredients come together.

• Transfer dough to lightly floured work surface. Press dough into a disk, then into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Flatten dough to 1/4-inch thick using a flat pan or rolling pin. Reshape into a rectangle.
• Cut dough lengthwise into 5 even strips about 1 inch wide, trimming extra dough if necessary. Cut each strip into 6 evenly sized squares. (You can roll out scraps to form more cookies if necessary). Transfer cookies to prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each cookie with about a pinch of sugar. Using a fork, poke 4 rows of holes into each cookie.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 50 minutes.

ROSEMARY-LEMON SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Steps:

• For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Lightly butter the foil and sides of the pan.
• Pulse the sugar with the lemon zest and rosemary in a food processor until well combined. Remove 2 tablespoons of the sugar mixture and reserve.
• Add the butter, salt and vanilla to the food processor with the sugar and pulse until combined. Add the flour, about 1 cup at a time, pulsing to combine after each addition. (After the last addition, you may need to stir and scrape down the sides of the food processor to incorporate all of the flour.) Continue to pulse until a dough comes together.
• Turn the dough out onto the prepared baking pan and press it evenly into the pan. Poke the dough all over with a fork and sprinkle it with the reserved sugar.
• Bake until the edges are golden brown and the center is golden, about 25 minutes. As soon as it's out of the oven, use a bench scraper or knife to cut the shortbread into 1-by-3-inch cookies. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then carefully remove the cookies using the foil as handles. Cool completely on a rack.
• For the icing: Combine the confectioners' sugar, lemon zest and juice in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine. Whisk in 1 tablespoon water or more for the desired thickness.
• Drizzle the icing over the cookies and allow to set, or serve the icing alongside to dip or drizzle upon serving.

• Spread a large sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface and transfer the dough onto it. Using the plastic wrap as a guide, form the dough into a loose log along 1 edge of the long side of the sheet. Roll the dough log, twisting the plastic gathered at the ends in opposite directions until the log is tight and compact, about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Chill in the refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Slice the dough log into 1/3-inch thick slices and arrange on the lined sheets, about 1-inch apart. Bake until the edges are just beginning to brown, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Cool the shortbread on the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Store the shortbread in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to serve.

ROSEMARY SHORTBREAD AND SAGE CARAMEL COOKIE BARS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the rosemary shortbread: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 9 x 13-inch baking dish (preferably aluminum) with parchment paper.
• Add the flour, sugar, rosemary, and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to incorporate. Add the butter and pulse until pebbly and the butter chunks are no larger than the size of peas, about 20 pulses.
• Transfer the dough to the prepared baking dish and press down with your hands or a flat-bottomed measuring cup to compact into an even layer, ensuring the dough reaches all the corners and edges.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the edges are light golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely (for faster cooling, let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator or freezer). The cooled shortbread can be wrapped in plastic wrap and kept in a cool, dry place for up to 2 days.
• Make the sage caramel: Add the heavy cream and sage to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Let simmer lightly for a moment, then remove the pot from the heat and let the sage steep for at least 20 minutes. Strain, discarding the sage leaves, and set aside.
• Add the sugar, corn syrup, and water to a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan and gently swirl the pot to moisten the sugar completely. Attach a candy thermometer to the pot (or have an instant-read thermometer nearby) and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until the temperature reaches 320°F (160°C), 5-10 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat. Gradually pour in the sage-infused cream and whisk constantly to incorporate, being careful as the mixture will bubble and sputter. Whisk in the butter and salt to combine.
• Return the pot to the heat and cook, whisking constantly for another 5-10 minutes, until the temperature reaches 240-245°F (115-118°C). Immediately remove the pot from the heat.
• Pour the caramel over the cooled shortbread and use an offset spatula to smooth into an even layer. Transfer to the refrigerator to let the caramel set completely.
• Once the caramel has set, prepare the decorations, then make the white chocolate ganache: Add the white chocolate, cream, and salt to a medium heatproof bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals until beginning to melt, then stir or whisk until smooth.
• Pour the ganache on top of the caramel and use an offset spatula to spread into a smooth, even layer. Immediately sprinkle the pomegranate arils, pistachios, and sprinkles, if using on top. Transfer to the refrigerator to set the chocolate.
• Once firm, cut the shortbread into squares or diamonds. The cookies can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
• Enjoy!

ROSEMARY SHORTBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and rosemary in a bowl.
• Mix together butter, honey, and confectioners sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at low speed, then add flour mixture and mix until dough resembles coarse meal with some small (roughly pea-size) butter lumps. Gather dough into a ball and transfer to a lightly floured surface. Knead dough until it just comes together, about 8 times. Halve dough and form each half into a 5-inch disk.
• Roll out 1 disk (keep remaining dough at room temperature) between 2 sheets of parchment into a 9-inch round (trim as necessary). Remove top sheet of parchment and transfer dough on bottom sheet of parchment to a baking sheet. Score dough into 8 wedges by pricking dotted lines with a fork, then mark edges decoratively. Arrange rosemary sprigs (if using) decoratively on top of dough, pressing lightly to help adhere, and sprinkle dough with 1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar.
• Bake shortbread in middle of oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Slide shortbread on parchment to a rack and cool 5 minutes. Transfer with a metal spatula to a cutting board and cut along score marks with a large heavy knife.
• Make another shortbread with remaining dough.
