I made them with some homemade rhubarb and ginger jam and threw some orange zest in the shortbread. <br />I love the tip of shredding the shortbread...it really does make it so light and crumbly.<br />Even my husband who does not have a sweettooth at all commented on how good they were and went back for seconds.

In June, I will no longer be a cog, after many years of cogging! At least, in that particular wheel... it's scary, but so exciting, and inspiring to see that after 5 years, you're doing just fine! :)Karehttp://www.thehazelbloom.comnoreply@blogger.com
