Cashew Shortbread

Cashew Shortbread


1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. In a large bowl, combine butter, brown sugar, and sugar; beat at high speed for appx 3 minutes with electric mixer.

3. Stir in cashews.

4. Sift flour, salt, & baking powder directly into the bowl.

5. Use your hands to mix the dough as quickly and efficiently as possible; form into a rough ball.

6. Lightly flour a clean, dry work surface; add dough and roll out to appx 1/4" thick.

7. Cut into simple shapes and place them on ungreased cookie sheet. (I cut them into diamonds, similar to bakalava -- didn't want to over-work the dough by re-rolling).

8. Bake in center of oven for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned on the bottom.

9. Cool for at least 10 minutes before eating.
