Coffee Shortbread Cookies

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
½ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons ground instant coffee
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
1 (16 oz) package Candiquik, Vanilla or Chocolate
1 teaspoon ground coffee

Directions

Preheat oven to 300° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In a medium bowl, beat together first 5 ingredients until smooth. Slowly add in flour and mix thoroughly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough until ¼-inch thick. Use a 2-inch cookie cutter or cut into squares and place 1-2 inches apart on baking sheets.

Bake 19-22 minutes or until center of cookie is firm. Cool completely on wire rack.

Melt Candiquik according to package directions and mix in coffee grounds.

Dip ½ of each cookie (or drizzle for a different look!) in Candiquik and allow it to set on wax or parchment paper.
