Shortbread Cookies Drizzled with Chocolate by Colleen
2 cups butter softened
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
4 cups flour
4 teaspoons vanilla
Cream butter and sugar. Add vanilla and then the flour. Blend together. Roll into logs about 1 x 2 inches. If your dough is very soft (it is so hot here the butter was almost liquid at room temp) I put the cookies close together on a tray lined with waxed paper and chill for an hour or so. Then bake at 325 for 19-23 minutes until edges begin to slightly turn brown. Let cool.
You can dip edges in melted chocolate/butter or drizzle with chocolate. I melt about 1 cup dark chocolate chips with 1/4 cup of butter in the micro and then get it in a squeeze bottle and let Charlotte go nuts.
