Mel's Shortbread
I was simply trying to be creative one day. While living in Germany I did a lot of cooking and baking. Having never made a true shortbread before I decided to give one a try, but instead of making one from a recipe I took four different recipes and created one from like ingredients. This turned out to be a nice treat. Note, no eggs, we have serveral friends that are vegetarian and this works out great....
