My husband, John, and I have been married 28 years this week.  I love him more today than the day I married him.  How cool is that?!  I am a lucky gal.

He bought me this special ceramic shortbread pan made by Brown Bag Designs for our anniversary.  Not sure where he got it… but it’s special… and makes very special and delicious shortbread cookies.

Ingredients:

1/2 c butter (room temp)

1/2 c. powdered sugar

1/2 t. vanilla

1/4 c. ground nuts

1 c. (less 2 T) flour

1 T. cornstarch

Cream butter together with other ingredients.

Bake at 325F for 30 – 35minutes.

Wonderful!

I did one as above with 1/2 c. nuts… and one without nuts, and 1 t. lemon peel.

Both were delicious, fancy, and share worthy.

Thank you, John.  I’m shooting for 50 years!
