Shortbread sounded like it would hit the spot - a perfect companion for the hot chocolate. So I got mixing and Nate got melting. It ended up being just what I needed.
I found the shortbread recipe on AllRecipes. It came out great, and it was EASY. Just what I needed in my contracting state. Interesting b/c it calls for brown sugar, which surprised me, but the reviewers said you HAD to do brown sugar, so I trusted them - it worked great.
Definitely a good holiday giveaway cookie. You can see I didn't spend much time trying to make them look good, but that's because I knew they wouldn't last long out in the real world anyway.

We use this recipe all the time and if I may make a yummy suggestion--mix up a bowl of chocolate pudding for dipping!
