Toblerone Shortbread Cookies





Ingredients:
2 cups butter, softened
1 cup fine granulated sugar
3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
300g Toblerone style chocolate, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons icing sugar, sifted

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In the bowl of an stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl with a hand held electric mixer), beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and cornstarch.  Slowly add to the butter mixture, beat until just combined.  Stir or fold in the chocolate chunks.
Drop heaping tablespoons of batter onto an ungreased baking sheet or one lined with parchment paper.  Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cookies are just beginning to brown.
Cool cookies on baking sheet for a couple of minutes.  Dust the tops of the cookies with icing sugar and transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
