Cookielove: Rosemary & Thyme Shortbread

Rosemary Thyme Shortbread

Nothing says holidays like home made cookies and whereas I’ve the normal ones – like press cookies, biscotti – I make yearly, I at all times like attempting just a few new recipes to see if they’re worthy of subsequent 12 months’s baking rotation.

My Rosemary Thyme Shortbread have turn out to be one of many vacation staples that I give as presents and add to the celebration cookie tray. Tailored years in the past from a Gourmand journal, this cookie was certainly one of my first ventures into utilizing savory herbs in a dessert. Rosemary was the star ingredient within the authentic recipe however I added thyme for an additional natural punch in taste and look. And whereas they’re not the healthiest of choices (they’re cookies in spite of everything), I’ve tweaked the components by chopping again on the butter (although nonetheless makes use of an entire stick) and including some white entire wheat flour for additional fiber and texture.

These are the cookies that individuals will bear in mind…and even perhaps request once more subsequent December.
