  1. So good, will definitely make these again. I prefer them to the traditional heavy shortbread version.
     
  2. Wow, I loved these cookies and so did my friends. I took them to a potluck and they were devoured before any other dessert. Needless to say, I received may recipe requests.
     
  3. Worst shortbread cookie recipe I have ever tried - cookies came out like skin patch used to stop smoking - no flavour - waste of 1 lb of butter - going back to my old recipe.
     
  4. So good.
