Loved the recipe! Made them for a preschool graduation in ABC shapes- they turned out perfect for both adults and kids.

Wonderful! After reading some of the reviews, I tasted the dough and added 1/4 tsp salt and another teaspoon of vanilla. They were great! I also rolled the dough into logs and then sliced. After baking I dipped half of the batch in milk chocolate and chopped almonds! WOW!!!!

I followed the recipe exactly and they didn't turn out. They were bland and dry.. not buttery like typical shortbread.

BLECK! These were awful! Not only did I waste my ingredients; but more importantly, I WASTED MY TIME! I was trying to bake these for nurses at a hospital as a thank you and these turned out dry and would make better dog biscuits than human treats.

As always, Ina: This recipe is just so easy and wonderful. Love that the dough can be frozen. Made these for Easter using egg-shaped cookie cutter and colored sugar. Just fabulous.

These cookies are like little bites of heaven and the chocolate adds a decadent touch (as if the cookies weren't rich enough. I halved the recipe because I was just making a few for my friend's birthday but I ended up eating half the batch myself, they're that good. I've made shortbread in the past but it's never turned out as good as this recipe.

Love Love this recipe...everytime I bake these no matter who tastes them they go crazy. What I have done, because they are so delish and full of butter, I halve each cookie with my shortbread cutter, then dip them all in really good dark chocolate and then dip half of them in finely chopped walnuts...these are just to die for...I am baking a batch right now to take to my grandson who absolutely loves them!
