Yum! We had to be careful not to overbake, but these have pretty much replaced my rice flour shortbread. It isn't quite as silky, but the difference is minimal, especially compared to the effort.

I place a maraschino cherry in the dip and pour a bit of chocolate on top. Yum! Funny you posted this recipe. My husband asked me yesterday to make him shortbread this weekend. I wasn't looking forward to making a grocery trip just for some rice flour, which I generally use for the silky texture. I think I will just give this recipe a shot instead! Thanks!

So I guess they weren't really shortbread...well they were shortbread to me! Anyway, I added some cinnamon in the dough too, and then when they were cooled I coated them in white chocolate. I was told off by all the dieting ladies when I took them into work, because they were addictive :D Now I'm feeling the baking urge again...But I'm the one on a diet. Argh!
