Marrying someone with Scottish blood ensures one thing – you will have tea and biscuits in your cupboards. I was never a huge shortbread fan, but these mini salted dark chocolate cookies have changed my mind! Since I have no will power when it comes to anything involving chocolate, these cookies have been reserved for days when we are expecting guests. Otherwise, I fear I would consume the whole batch myself…
If you have been blessed with a stronger will power than myself, feel free to bake a batch and nibble on with a cup of tea or coffee. By using a mini cookie cutter you can create bit size treats to satisfy your sweet cravings.
Feeling generous? Then you can even package up a few cookies to give to a friend or neighbor. I guarantee you will score major friend points with these cookies!
Salted Dark Chocolate Shortbread
Finishing Touches:
- Once cool, dip your shortbread cookie into melted dark chocolate
- Lay on a non-stick surface
- Sprinkle with coarse sea salt
- Let harden before serving
They’re beautiful! I’ve never been fond of shortbread as well, so I’ll have to try your recipe!
Thanks, Mimi! You have to try the recipe! I found it difficult not to eat them all myself:)
