These cookies are not only delicious but also visually appealing, making them perfect for holiday gatherings or as a special treat any time of the year.
- Use high-quality butter to enhance the flavor and texture of your shortbread.
- Chill the dough before rolling it out to make it easier to handle and to prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
- To ensure even cooking, make sure all the cookies are of similar thickness before baking.
- If you don't have a star-shaped cookie cutter, you can use any other shape you like or simply slice the dough into squares.
Making macadamia shortbread stars is a simple yet rewarding baking project. With just a few ingredients and some basic tips, you can create delicious, elegant cookies that are sure to impress.
