    Amazing & Easy Shortbread Cookies

    11/23 /1 Comment

    I love the versatility of shortbread cookies! I love them even more dipped in chocolate! I took these one more step and added peppermint because my little one loves it! He had one of these cookies and did a happy dance singing these are the best cookies ever! He is four so any cookie is a great cookie, but it made me smile.
