INGREDIENTS
Butter and Sugars
- 🧈 1 ½ cups butter, softened
- 🧂 ⅔ cup white sugar
- 🧂 ¼ cup sifted confectioners' sugar
Herbs and Flavorings
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh lavender
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint leaves
- 🍋 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Dry Ingredients
- 🌾 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cornstarch
- 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt
STEPS
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the lavender, mint, and lemon zest. Combine the flour, cornstarch, and salt; mix into the batter until well blended. Divide dough into two balls, wrap in plastic wrap, and flatten to about 1-inch thick. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters. Cookie stamps will work well on these too. Place on cookie sheets.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, just until cookies begin to brown at the edges. Cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
