Butter Shortbread Recipe

Ingredients:

2 Cups Flour
1 Cup Unsalted Stick Butter (Do not use margarine)
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 tsp Almond Extract

Cream Butter and Sugar with
Hand Blender until mixed well.
Add Almond Extract and Flour
slowly and mix well.

Roll Small Amounts of dough on floured surface, 1/4 inch thick. Use Wax paper to assist. Dip stamp in bowl of sugar. Press firmly onto dough. Remove Surrounding Edges by hand. Transfer cookies using spatula to ungreased cookie sheet. Chill uncooked dough with cookie sheet in refrigerator for a few hours, or in the freezer for about a half hour. Preheat oven at 320 F, and bake for 16-18 minutes or until edges are golden. Remove from oven, let cool for about 15 mintues (and to let the design deflate). Enjoy!

Tip: Try chilling your dough for 2-3 hours, or freezing it for about 15-20 minutes before placing the cut-outs in the oven. It has been suggested that this may reduce the deformation of your cookie shape and provide a cleaner design.

Other Useful Tips for making Cookies Look their best Using our Cutter/Stamp

1. Lightly flour the counter surface where you are going to roll your dough.
2. Estimate the depth of the cookie cutter so that your rolled dough is equal to it. Too much dough or too little dough makes your cookie less than ideal.
3. Make sure that you roll your dough to a consistent thickness of about 2/8th of an inch.
4. Spray or brush coconut or other oil onto the face of your stamp before each impression for easy removal and the big reveal!
5. Remove excess dough from the outside perimeter of your stamp, then slowly remove your stamp from the cut-out dough. You may need to carefully help the dough come out of the stamp with your finger or a small tool like a butter knife.
6. Use a flat spatula to transfer your cut-out stamped cookies to your baking sheet. If your spatula is deforming the dough, make sure you used enough flour on the counter, and that you use a thin, flexible spatula.
7. Space your cookies on a cookie sheet.
8. Some people say that placing your cookie sheet in the refrigerator for a few hours, or in the freezer for a half hour prior to baking helps maintain your design. It all depends on the recipe you use and the ingredients that cause your design to change. Experiment, experiment, experiment. We can't say that enough.

Caring for your Modern Guam Seal Stamp
Your cookie cutter stamp is a first of its kind using 3D technology and a molding process using food-safe resin to make these really cool and durable Modern Guam Seal Cookie Cutter Stamps In-One. 

We recommend hand-washing and air-drying your resin cookie cutter stamp product before and after each use.

In our kitchen lab tests, our cookies turned out with an obvious raised stamp texture. We recommend seasoning your cutter stamp with Pam brand spray prior to each stamping effort, producing a cleaner design on the dough. If any dough gets stuck in the tiny crevices, please use a toothpick to remove any dough that remains prior to restamping.

While not all cookie dough recipes work with cutter/stamps, we have tested the recipe below in our kitchen and have found it to work wonderfully. You may find other cutter/stamp recipes on the Internet as well. Like any baking effort, we suggest that you modify your recipes, bake times, and temperatures to come up with your perfect Modern Guam Seal cookies. Baking is a science and art, so keep experimenting.
