These are soft, buttery cookies which are almost like shortbread. The Chief Taster is a shortbread fiend and moaned that these were not thick enough. I had to explain that these are cookies but I guess you could fashion the dough into larger sections and call it a short bread. However, I think these would be lovely with other flavours, such as lemon.
The mixture is so easy to make, you could let your young children whip up a batch. Then eat them all whilst they look on.

May 13, 2016 at 7:18 pmJust found your Blog and love it! These cookies, and your Hazelnut Orange cookies are just what I’m looking for to use in this really pretty shortbread pan I have. It has a snowflake impression and after the cookies come out you dust them with a powdered sweetener. I know it’s still Spring, (at least where I live) but Autumn is my favorite time of year and I was only able to use that pan once last year. As soon as you said your husband loves shortbread I knew. Thanks for the lovely recipes..

December 2, 2013 at 2:45 amYummmm !! I just made these but I used coconut oil instead of butter and 2 additional tablespoons of erythritol. Such a delicious and sweet cookie that took no effort or time! Way to go with this one!

December 1, 2013 at 12:48 pmI love the idea of this recipe. It sounds like something right up my alley. I don’t like very sweet things, and this sounds sweet enough to satisfy my husband the Cookie Monster without being too sweet for me. It will also be the perfect amount of cookies for two people. I can only hope he doesn’t eat them all before I get to taste one!
