Sissy's Shortbread

Okay, people! Here's a fun recipe for anyone to enjoy! This recipe is not exactly a healthy snack; however, it serves as a good cookie recipe for anyone whose kids have egg allergies. Anyone who has a kid with allergies knows "the face" they put on when they realize that they can't enjoy the same treats that other, non-allergy, kids can. So, here's my fallback:

Sissy's Shortbread:

1 1/4 C. Flour
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
1/2 C.(1 stick) butter. REAL butter. Don't try to substitute..not good!
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
Chocolate chips to your liking.

Oven temp: 325 degrees
Bake time: approx. 25 minutes (until golden brown)

Add dry ingredients together. Cut in butter until the butter is in small chunks, then (after washing hands!) blend until smooth. Add vanilla and blend in, also. Finally, add chocolate chips and then pat mixture into a ball.

Grease a flat baking pan, and then add mixture on top. Roll until the dough is about 1/2-inch thick. Cut shortbread into rows BEFORE putting in oven, or else you will end up with a HUGE sheet cookie.

Bake until golden brown on top. Enjoy!
