Shortbread Cookies

Shortbread cookies are always great to have around.  Just sweet enough to have for dessert or a snack and not feel too guilty.  This shortbread recipe i have made several times and i use 1/2 of he sugar that was originally asked for and also to make it more interesting and give it more texture…
