Hellloooo there and welcome back! Today we are making some kawaii latte art using the Creative Cafe Barista Bar, along with some simple but tasty shortbread 😋 I’ve always loved and wanted to make latte art, so I was super stoked that we finally got to tackle it today!! I hope you enjoy the video!! 😁
SHORTBREAD RECIPE
Ingredients
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 cups flour
- Melted chocolate and sprinkles (optional)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and powdered sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and almond extract, then mix to combine. Finally, add in the flour, and mix until the dough just comes together.
- Roll out the dough on a floured work surface until 1/4″ thick, then cut out desired shapes using cookie cutters. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-13 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool completely, then dip them halfway in the melted chocolate and sprinkle over the rainbow sprinkles if desired.
