Rosemary and Parmesan Shortbread image

I had this at a party, last year before Christmas, and spent 2+ hours looking for it...finally found it at the Washington Times website; it is a Bev Bennett recipe, and is nice and different...may be served with recipe#347481, or is great stand alone!

Time 20m

Yield 32 slices of shortbread, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese (use the best you can...)
1/8-1/4 cup sugar (to taste, I prefer it less sweet)
3/4 cup flour
1/3 cup cornmeal (I use white)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Cream together butter, parmesan and sugar at med. speed in bowl of electric mixer. Scrape down contents.
  • Mix together flour, cornmeal, salt and rosemary in a bowl. Add to the creamed mixture, a little at a time.
  • Remove dough from bowl and form into a log approximately 9 inches long. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
  • Cut log into slices slightly wider than 1/4 inch. Place on parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in pre-heated oven for 13-15 minutes or until shortbread turns faintly brown on top and light brown on bottom. Remove from oven. Cool shortbread on wire rack.
  • Makes 32 slices of shortbread. May be wrapped in heavy duty foil and frozen for 1 month. To serve, spread frozen shortbread on a baking sheet. Warm in a 325 degree oven for 5 minutes.
