Shortbread Cookies


One of my thrift shop finds this year has been a collection of ceramic shortbread molds. I love christmas cookies, and have a few standards that I make every year, but I also love to try a couple new ones each year. I've never done a molded cookie like this. So I'm thinking my test recipes for this year will be of the shortbread variety.

Now I just need some recipes: here's a search for shortbread on one of my favorite food blogs, 101 Cookbooks. There are some great sounding ones there, such as Pine Nut Rosemary or Apple and Carrot Shortbread.

But I'd love to have some tried-and-true recipes you've actually made. Do you have a recipe to suggest? If so, please leave a comment on the blog. Yes, it may be early to be talking about the holidays, but I'm leaving some response time so I can hear from YOU!
