Recipe by Pam Lolley Leap for Spring with 6-ingredient, Ginger Shortbread Cookies. Look for minced crystallized ginger at your local grocery on the bottled spice aisle.

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons minced crystallized ginger 1/8 teaspoon table salt Parchment paper Lemon-Cream Cheese Frosting

Instructions

Preheat oven to 275 °. Beat butter at medium speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until creamy; gradually add sugar, beating well. Stir in vanilla. Stir together flour, ginger, and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating at low speed until blended after each addition. Place dough on a lightly floured surface, and roll dough to 1/4 inch thick. Cut with a 2-inch round cutter. Place 2 inches apart on 2 parchment paper-lined baking sheets (about 12 per sheet). Reroll scraps once. Bake, in batches, at 275 ° for 40 minutes or until lightly browned on bottom. (Refrigerate second batch while baking first batch.) Cool on baking sheet 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and cool completely (about 30 minutes). Meanwhile, prepare Lemon-Cream Cheese Frosting. Spread about 1 Tbsp. on each cooled cookie, using a small spatula.
