Hey- Shortay!

I made some horribly good cookies...since we have NO SWEETS in our house....seriously!? no cookies, no cupcakes, no candy, no NOTHING! Well, the only thing sweet we have is graham crackers. Which are good, but when you are craving a soft, squishy, chocolaty, doughy goodness, graham crackers don't cut it. So...I did some recipe research and decided to make something I have never made before.
SHORTBREAD COOKIES :D

Leeloo's spot in the kitchen.
Relaxing while I cook yummy things...

Just out of the oven, resting on some parchment.

All dressed and ready to be DEVOURED
