Chocolate Shortbread Cookies
Alison Roman's Chocolate Chunk Shortbread Cookies are famous! In fact, you may have already made them. This post is for a slightly different cookie. I decided to make the cookies smaller. I also cut them thicker to create extra crunch around the edges. I used Morena sugar (because that's what I had on hand at the time and it actually ended up creating a delicious crispy edge). I also put salt in the cookie dough (instead of on top). When I make these again I am going to use shreds of chocolate instead of chunks. I realize this is strange coming from me, a person who loves CHOCOLATE. I think shreds of chocolate will add more flavor because the chocolate is thinner and melts faster. (I also used a really good high quality chocolate!)
