What a yummy post and recipe! I will gladly share with friends and family with the expectation that they will each bring me a batch for critique.
ReplyDeleteI love shortbread and dipping them in chocolate and adding coconut to them makes them even better. I'll have to try this recipe. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteLooks good to me except for the coconut. Dislike the flavor and texture of it. I'd put chopped nuts instead.
