Coffee shortbread with many options

Bread
coffee shortbread with many options

Working with a recipe credited to Dixie Terry, I made some changes to the ingredient deck, but I did have some fun with the decorating. The secret I found to working with this dough is to cream the butter and sugars very well before adding the flour in incremental amounts. After re-rolling the dough several times after using a 2-inch cookie cutter, I started to roll out circles of dough with rough edges, and sliced in pie shapes for a more rustic and thicker shortbread.

<br />You can use this recipe to decorate the shortbread, as well as reheat the coffee-flavored white chocolate I made to spread over some of the cookies:

<br />From scanning through the photos, you can see what fun I had on this dreary and chilly day.
