SHORTBREAD ROUNDS

1 CUP BUTTER, SOFTENED

1/4 CUP SUGAR

2 CUPS ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR

1 CUP MILK CHOCOLATE CHIPS

POWDERED SUGAR FOR DUSTING

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cream butter and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer at low to medium speed until light. Gradually add flour until combined.  Stir in chips by hand. If dough seems dry or crumbly it will stick together when shaped with your hands.

Using the palms of your hands, roll well rounded teaspoons full of dough into one inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheets and bake 13-15 minutes.  Cookies will still be pale.  Let stand 2 minutes before removing from cookie sheet, and dust with powdered sugar.
