directions
Step 1
Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment and preheat the oven to 350° F.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, mix together flours, cornstarch, wheat germ and salt.
Step 3
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together butter and sugar for about 1 minute. Add vanilla extract and mix for 30 seconds. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Step 4
Press the dough into the pan. Score lightly into 1-inch by 2 ¼-inch fingers. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the shortbread is light brown at the edges.
Step 5
When cooled completely, cut into fingers along the score marks. If kept in an airtight container, the shortbread will keep for two weeks or more.
