Melt-in-your-mouth Chocolate Shortbread Cookies that you can slice and bake or roll out and use cookie cutters to make fun shapes.
I can’t think of a better way to show your love for someone than to bake them a special treat.
No one knows this better than my mom Carol, who I think enjoys sharing her baking at Valentine’s Day almost as much as she does during the holidays. Her festive cookies are not only totally scrumptious but they are completely adorable!
I am particularly smitten by these Chocolate Shortbreads she makes, often in the month of February. While the original recipe calls for cutting the dough into little strips before baking, my mom has been known to roll out the dough and make sweet heart-shaped, cut-outs that she tops with dusting of colored sugar.
