STRAWBERRY SHORTBREAD AND CREAM
In this summery dessert, golden-edged cookies are paired with syrupy strawberries and fluffy whipped cream for a result that's a bit like strawberry shortcake, but crunchier and a lot more buttery. These cookies have a little more sugar than most shortbread recipes, so they're especially crisp, but since they are on the sweet side, use a light hand when adding sugar to the berries. You just need enough to get the juices flowing. A few pinches should do it. And if you use cultured butter, the cookies will be even richer.

Steps:
- Using an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or an electric hand mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg yolk, salt, vanilla seeds and orange blossom water, if using. Beat in flour until smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
- Scrape the dough onto a 12-inch-long piece of plastic wrap and form it into a log, 1 1/2 inches in diameter. It will be very sticky, so use the plastic wrap to help form the log (or make two shorter logs if that's easier). Then wrap it up and chill until it's thoroughly cold, at least 3 hours (and up to 5 days).
- When ready to bake, heat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick liners.
- Unwrap the dough log and slice it into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Arrange them on the prepared baking sheets and bake until the cookies are golden at the edges, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer baking sheets to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies can be bake up to 4 days ahead and stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
- When ready to serve, sprinkle strawberries with a little sugar and let them sit for 15 minutes to release their juices.
- Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk, or a whisk and elbow grease, whip the cream, adding a teaspoon or two of sugar, if you like. Note that the cookies are very sweet so you may not want to add any sugar at all.
- Spoon the strawberries into serving bowls and top with whipped cream. Drizzle cream with juices from the strawberry bowl. Tuck a cookie or two in each bowl and serve with spoons.

Steps:
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Put the butter, sugar, and extract, if using, in the bowl of a food processor or stand mixer. Sift in the strawberry powder to avoid lumps. Cream well. Make sure your strawberry powder is well incorporated and the mixture is streak free.
- Add the flour and pulse about 10 times, then run the machine briefly, just until the dough comes together into a lump or lumps. If using a stand mixer, add the flour on low and mix until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and finish bringing it together, if necessary, with your hands. When it is smooth with no crumbly spots remaining, form it into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a 1/4 inch thickness and cut out with a cookie cutter. I used a 2 inch cookie cutter for about 20 cookies. I like to refrigerate the cut cookies for 15-20 minutes before baking.
- Bake the cookies for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of your cookies. I like my shortbread on the softer side, but if you prefer it crunchy, bake a little longer. Don't let them get browned.
- Cool on the pan for about 15 minutes, until the cookies are firm enough to handle, and then lightly brush the edges with egg white, and roll in sparkling sugar. Let dry before eating. Note: you can also brush the edges and roll in sugar before baking, if you prefer.

STRAWBERRY SHORTBREAD SUGAR COOKIES
A local deli had a variation of these cookies that everyone raved about. While I haven't ever tried one, My friend had one with her lunch and I decided to give it a shot at making them. Everyone said they were better than the original! You can easily change the fruit topping or whipped cream/pudding mix to your liking

Steps:
- Clean and cut strawberries in slices, cover and place in fridge so they can make their own syrup while baking add a tablespoon of sugar to help. (optional).
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, use a nonstick pan, or use cooking spray. (For quicker cooking, I use two cookie sheets).
- Mix butter and powdered sugar in stand mixer. (Or hand mixer).
- Once butter and powdered sugar is fluffy, mix vanilla until evenly combined.
- In a seperate bowl, combine flour and baking powder and slowly add to butter/powdered sugar mixture. (Use low speeds and do not over-mix).
- Form two balls of dough and place in fridge wrapped in plastic wrap and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Once dough is chilled and firm (about 30 mins) remove one ball of dough and roll on floured surface and use cookie cutter, or you can roll into a log and cut slices. Transfer to cookie sheet, then repeat with second ball of dough.
- Bake for 9-12 mins or until edges are golden. If the whole cookie is golden or brown it will turn out too crunchy. These cookies are best on the soft side.
- While cookies are cooling, mix instant vanilla pudding and milk in a bowl. As pudding sets (5 mins) use stand or hand mixer to whip the whipping cream and sugar. (optional since pudding adds sweetness). Once stiff peaks form, fold into pudding with rubber spatula.
- Spoon pudding mix onto cookies to make it look like a thick layer of icing, then place a slice or two of strawberries on each cookie.
- Experiment with the flavors! You can do cheesecake pudding with fresh raspberries or blueberry pie filling, or even banana creme pudding with fresh banana slices on top.

SHORTBREAD SUGAR COOKIES WITH ICING
I love shortbread and I like sugar cookies but a cookie that is both...that's heaven! This is the kind of icing that "dries" and makes almost like a candy shell on the cookie. When the icing is dry, store in an airtight container for up to a week. You can also keep the unbaked dough in the fridge for up to a week...but who can resist making these that long? You have to use butter to get the right taste. Sometimes just for a different flavor I add a teaspoon or two of almond extract.

- Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or generously spray with non stick spray.

- Form dough into big ball and place in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Roll out chilled dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with cookie cutter or you can use a pizza cutter and make squares or rectangles. Another option is to roll into a log and cut 1/4 inch thick slices.
- Using a spatula, transfer to cookie sheets leaving about 1/2 inch between cookies.
- Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Cool 10 minutes on cookie sheet and then transfer to cooling rack.
- When cookies are cool, whisk together the icing ingredients and either dip the cookies or spread on cookies. You can smooth the icing with the back of a spoon.
- These are so good -- you should really double the recipe!
JAMMY DODGERS
On my first trip to Great Britain, I stumbled upon these cookies (or biscuits, as they're known in the U.K.). These iconic treats, sold as Jammie Dodgers, can be found everywhere over there. Since I couldn't find them in the States, I had to make my own version. -James Schend, Taste of Home Deputy Editor, Culinary
