Chocolate Shortbread

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1/2 cup rice flour
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup sugar crystals

1. Preheat the oven to 325u0b0F. Line 2 large baking pans with parchment paper.
2. Beat butter, powdered sugar and vanilla extract in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Sifted flours and cocoa powder into a medium bowl. Beat into butter mixture in 2 batches. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly for 5 mins.
3. Divide mixture into 6 equal portions. Use your hands to press each dough portion into a 5-inch round. Mark each shortbread round into 6 wedges with the back of a large knife, then prick with a fork. Use your fingertips to pinch the edges of the rounds. Sprinkle top with the sugar crystals.
4. Bake for about 45 mins or until cooked through. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
