Pat's Notes:

This is a copycat recipe of delicious buttery cookies that taste just like Panera's.These cookie will melt in your mouth and are very addicting, so good, you won't be able to eat just one- I have been known to horde these.

Directions

Combine all ingredients; use hands to knead until ingredients are blended. Press dough into parchment paper covered ungreased 9x13 inch pan to 1/4 inch.
Before baking mark rectangle cookie lines with knife to make them look more authentic Panera shortbread cookie look .

Bake at 325^ for about 20 minutes check after 15 minutets, or until light and not browned. Don't overbake. Cut into cookie squares when cool.

What is the trick to spreading out the dough? It was sticking everywhere.

Angela, perhaps you did not knead it enough. I use floured fingers to spread out the dough..Give that a try. Sorry you have a problem with the dough.

Dan just measure out 2 cups of all purpose flour the remover 2 Tablespoons of flour for each cup of flour -in this case it would be remove 4 Tablespoons (1/4 cup) of ap flour and you will have cake flour.

1 c- ap flour minus 2 Tablespoons = 1 cup cake flour out--hope this helps you.
