1 large onion, peeled and chopped

Review from followers:

This was a VERY easy, FAST and delicious recipe! I added 2 tsp vanilla and since I did not have self-rising flour, I used 1 cup flour plus 1 tsp baking powder. Also, I added 2 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp nutmeg to the peaches and their juice. Baked it at 350 for 1 hour uncovered and it browned nicely. If you are looking for a crispy topping, this will not be the recipe for you, rather the cobbler reminded me of a warm and gooey pie inside! It was excellent with vanilla or cinnamon ice cream and/or whipped cream! So easy to prepare and of course- to eat! Thanks for the recipe – this will be a repeat recipe for our family. Thank you for sharing!

This is just like my granny’s .. I love it. I use the same ingredients just put them together like my grandmother does. She melts the butter into the bottom of her pan, pour peaches over the top and then mixes together the milk, flour & sugar. Then pours the milk mixtures right in the center of the peaches. By then end of baking the milk mixture rises to the top and makes an awesome topping.

I didn’t have self-rising flour, so I used (according to a “substitutions” website I found) 1 cup of flour (minus 2 tsp), 1/2 tsp salt and 1 1/2 tsp baking powder for every cup of self-rising flour. I doubled the recipe, and used 2-28 ounce cans of peaches (I like lots) but only the juice/syrup from one and cooked in a 9×13 pan until golden brown on top. LOVED IT!!!!!! Thanks so much! (served with whipped cream while still hot!)

These are the shortbread cookies my mom has made for Christmas every year since I was a child. They literally melt in your mouth. You will LOVE them!

These shortbread cookies are crazy soft. When I say they melt in your mouth, I mean it. No chewing required. They’re the most tender shortbread cookies you will ever eat. I just passed one to my handsome man and his response was, “Damn, woman. I don’t know what just happened in my mouth, but I want more of it.”

This shortbread cookie recipe has only 4 ingredients, is made in one bowl, and is the best shortbread you will ever eat. Are you sold? You should be!

TIPS FOR MAKING THE SOFTEST SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Make sure the cookie dough is cold before you put it in the oven. If your house is quite warm, put the cookie dough in the fridge to chill it before you bake the cookies.

Don’t skimp on the 10 minutes it takes to beat the dough. My whole family has made this recipe more times than we can count and it works best if you set a timer and see it through the full 10 minutes.

Use salted butter. This has nothing to do with making the softest shortbread cookies, but it will make the tastiest ones.

I must admit that I don’t care for this recipe. However, I am the minority! Every person that eats these absolutely loves them. I make them all of the time for those 2 reasons too! (This way I don’t pig out on cookies.) 🙂 I place the dough for these in a pastry bag and pipe them out using the largest star tip, they turn out really pretty. I have dipped them in chocolate and added sprinkles and they look great. Yesterday I added the rind from an orange for a citrusy flavor, it was very subtle but well received. These cookies do honestly melt in your mouth, they are a cinch to make and are fairly inexpensive to prepare-what more could you ask for in a recipe?

Thanks for sharing it!

This recipe works best if you beat the dough with electric beaters. If you have a stand mixer, set it aside for this recipe. (And a big thank you to my sister for helping me recipe test this with her Kitchen Aid!)
