Did I hear somebody say CHOCOLATE? 6th Street ShortbreadT loves chocolate. Here are some ideas that will complement the classic personality of this wonderful cookie using just a small amount of melted chocolate.
Muddy River. Instead of rolling the dough, take walnut-sized balls of dough and roll them in your hands. Place the balls on the cookie sheet. But before baking indent the center of the ball with your thumb - just make certain you don't go all the way through the bottom of the cookie ball. Bake as usual. Once the cookies have cooled fill your thumbprint with melted chocolate. Could also add a sprinkle of toasted pecan pieces before the chocolate sets.
Half hearts. Roll the dough as directed on the package. Cut the dough with your favorite heart-shaped cookie cutter. When the cookies have baked and cooled dip half of each heart into the melted chocolate. Place cookies on a wire rack while the chocolate sets.
