Shortbread for Any Occasion!

Don't you love recipes that can be used throughout the year? And throughout the day? And for a variety of occasions? Well, this one qualifies!

Shortbread is an easy treat to make, and generally uses the basic ingredients of butter, sugar and flour. This recipe from Bon Appetit, Rosemary Caraway Shortbread, will need the added ingredients of a couple sprigs of fresh rosemary and a small amount of caraway.

For what occasions could you use this recipe? Morning or afternoon tea. As an appetizer along with cheese and grapes. As a side with a savory main dish. As a dessert with any berry you might have. It would be a perfect treat along side your favorite liqueur to complete a dinner party.

Or as a gift to ANY friend or loved one! It can be made in advance and would look lovely in a small cookie tin.

Use the best butter available to you as that is what makes the best shortbread.
