3-Ingredient Butter Cookies Using Airfryer

I wanted to bake some quick and easy butter cookies using my airfryer, and out came this 3-ingredient butter cookie recipe; my go-to recipe if I need to bake something fast. It's made of just flour, butter and sugar - yes, so simple. These cookies are really rich and buttery, like shortbread, and simply everyone's favourite!

Of course, you can impress by decorating it with some coloured icing, chocolate rice or simply make cute hedgehog cookies like what I did. Let your creativity flow and have fun!

Note: The recipe below is really for the purpose of baking some quick and easy cookies, hence only a portion of 12 pieces. Go ahead and double the portion if you need to :)

3-Ingredient Butter Cookies Using Airfryer

Yield: 12 cookies

Ingredients

70g plain/ top/ cake flour  

50g unsalted butter

20g castor sugar

Directions

1) Cream butter and sugar. 

2. Mix in the flour to form a soft dough.

3. Wrap the dough in a cling wrap and freeze it for 15 to 30 min till the dough firms up.

4. The dough, when firmed up, will enable easier shaping. You can now preheat the airfryer at 140 degrees for 5 min.

5. Weigh 10g of dough and shape it into your desired shape.

6. Bake in airfryer at 140 degrees for 14 min till the cookies are golden brown. 

If you want to have fun with your cookie cutters, at Step 4 before baking, roll your dough out flat and make your own cute shapes!
