Marli's Shortbread
A friend recently told me the best shortbread she's ever tried were the ones i baked for her at christmas - i was very flattered, so i thought i better share this recipe on zaar! I like to halve this recipe & add 1/2 cup pecan nuts to one half & 1/2 cup of butterscotch chips to the other.
