Parmesan Shortbread image

The sugar has been omitted from these butter-rich savory shortbread cookies and replaced with tangy Parmesan cheese! What a yummy snack! We like to eat a few of these lightly salty biscuits with a ripe juicy pear. These would also be good alongside a nice bowl of minestrone. Get authentic Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese if you can.

Yield 16 savory cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 1/4 cups flour
