Whipped Shortbread

1 lb salted butter
1 1/4 c organic icing sugar
1/2 c organic cornstarch
2 1/2 c all purpose flour (organic if possible)
7 marishino cherries cut up for decorating the top of the cookies. (I used the ones in the jar) I cut them up then placed a paper towel over top to absorb the liquid.

1. Preheat  oven to 350 degrees Farenheit.

2. In a large mixing bowl,  chop butter into smaller pieces and whip for 2 minutes until creamy. (I used my butter at room temperature).

3. Slowly add the icing sugar.

4. Add cornstarch.  Mix well.

5. Slowly add flour to make a soft dough.

6. Pinch off enough dough to make 1" balls.

7. Place balls of dough on to cookie sheet.  Press balls with a fork. Place a piece of cherry into center of each cookie.

8. Bake at 350 degrees Farenheit for about 12 minutes.

9. Remove from rack and let cool.  Enjoy!
