Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter, softened (no substitutes)

These cookies were a bit dry, but they were still good. I think I'll try adding a little bit of moisture next time, maybe some milk or eggs.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of peppermint, but these cookies were still really good. The shortbread is buttery and crumbly, and the chocolate chips add a nice touch of sweetness.
