To prepare a fun teatime shortbread baked goods recipe, you'll need: 1 cup (240 ml) granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon (2.5 g) vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons (60 milliliters) water. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8-inch (22-centimeter) round baking pans. Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the flour mixture and stir just until combined, then add the chocolate chips. Scoop the mixture into each prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool before cutting into squares and serving.
