Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies are all the goodness of melt-in-your-mouth shortbread combined with a little bit of chocolate. Your family will love these easy tasty cookies!
These cookies look so fancy and impressive, but guess what? They only require a handful of ingredients and are super easy to make. You’ve got to love that! On top of all that, they are also super tasty. These are great for a tea party, baby shower, brunch, or just for a regular old treat. Weโve dipped these cookies in melted chocolate, but you also don’t have to dip them in chocolate at all. It adds a fun and fancy finishing touch and a higher chocolate content, but you can also have these cookies plain as well.
Do I need a stand mixer to make Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies
You will need either a hand mixer or a stand mixer for this recipe to adequate beat together the butter and powdered sugar.
Chocolate Chips:
We love adding chocolate chips to our shortbread cookies, but you can always make a plain shortbread cookie without them.
Can I use cookie cutters?
These cookies hold their shape which means you can cut them in squares or rectangles as shown, or you can use cookie cutters to come up with your own shape. Smaller cookie cutters may require a slightly shorter cooking time so be sure to watch them closely.
Storage Instructions:
Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

I’ve made this cookie recipe several times. My family and friends love them! It’s a crowd pleaser!
I’ve used salted and unsalted butter to make these cookies and both ways tasted great. there was no significant difference using salted vs unsalted.
Nice! I recommend adding a pinch of salt.
Wonderful! I made these for a holiday cookie exchange. I drizzled the melted chocolate on top and sprinkled sparkly sprinkles on top. These cookies are VERY easy to make, which surprised me. Thank you!
I have made this recipe a couple of time. They always come out great. Love you recipes. Bobbie from AZ
I made them last year. They were amazing. I hope I can do it again this year. They were a hit.
These are all he best shortbread cookies. We are nut fans so I added nuts Super yummy.
Try this recipe with chopped pecans instead of chocolate chips. See what you think.

I love this recipe and make it often. I put mine into a long loaf tin, fridge it and slice it before baking.
