Shortbread Easter Cookies

 


The boys and I are getting ready for our long Easter weekend and making our favourite shortbread cookies!

Seriously! Who thought it would be a good idea to let their kid bake in a black shirt? lol The boys need aprons, stat!

  3. I’ll have to try this recipe. I have one from my hubby’s grandma, but they’re always so dry.
