Maqui Berry Shortbread Cookies

These decadent cookies are a vibrant twist on a classic favorite—featuring buttery, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread drizzled with a silky maqui berry glaze made with organic maqui powder. Rich in antioxidants and bursting with bold berry flavor, they strike the perfect balance between indulgent sweetness and feel-good nourishment.

INGREDIENTS

Maqui Berry Shortbread:
½ cup monk fruit sweetener
1 cup unsalted butter, room temp.
½ tsp. kosher salt
½ tsp. vanilla extract
1 large egg
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. Navitas Organics Maqui Powder
¼ cup freeze-dried blueberries, crushed
Maqui Icing:
1 cup organic powdered sugar
1½ Tbsp. lemon juice
1 Tbsp. almond milk
1 Tbsp. Navitas Organics Maqui Powder

DIRECTIONS

Maqui Berry Shortbread:

Combine butter, sweetener and salt in a bowl and mix until smooth. Add egg and vanilla extract, and mix dough until egg is thoroughly combined.
In a separate bowl, combine maqui powder with flour, add to dough mixture and mix until fully combined and dough remains soft with crumbly texture.
Fold in freeze-dried blueberries until incorporated into dough, then transfer dough to a lightly floured surface.
Shape dough into rectangle and lightly sprinkle flour on top. Roll dough out to a ¼-inch thick slab, then cut out cookies using a cookie cutter.
Arrange cookies on parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
While dough is chilling, preheat oven to 300° F and line a half baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bake cookies for 20-25 minutes, then let cool on sheet before transferring to cooling rack.

Maqui Icing:

Combine all icing ingredients in medium bowl and mix well.

Drizzle on cooled cookies and enjoy!
