About
Note: This recipe was submitted by Dawn Rosner to the Four Seasons Hotel Seattle's Ultimate Holiday Cookie Contest.
My kids (Julian - 11, and Michaella - 16) are the impetus behind my cookie recipe submission. They're insistent that my recipe is "AMAZING!" We love the buttery smoothness of this decadent simple shortbread. Because we adore semi-sweet/dark chocolate, I've incorporated a generous amount of chocolate chips in the batter, along with a chocolate drizzle...just to send them over the top for the holidays. I've been sharing them with family, friends and co-workers for several years. They're always an ultimate favorite.
