Red, White & Blue Patriotic Shortbread Bars Recipe


Ingredients
  • 1-1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-1/2 cups flour
  • blue & red food coloring
  • -used Americolor Soft Gel Paste in 119 Red Red and 103 sky blue
  • red, white & blue jimmies
Directions
Preheat oven to 300 and line a square baking pan with foil. Spray the foil with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a food processor add, butter, sugar, salt and four. Process for about 20 seconds until dough forms.
Remove dough from food processor and shape into a log. Divide the log into thirds.
Color one portion of the dough red with red fool coloring. Mix well with a spoon so the color is even. I use about a dime size amount of color gels.
Color one portion of the dough blue with blue food coloring. Mix well with a spoon so the color is even. I use about a dime size amount of color gels.
Pull the dough apart in small sections and place into the prepared pan. Make sure the sections touch each other. When finished, flatten the dough with the palm of your hand.
