These look amazing! Do you think it would be possible to use this dough as tart crust?

Delicious! I made these and also the buttery vanilla shortbread and tried your variation of combining them as well! Very happy with how they turned out!

I have made this recipe over and over my husband’s favorite chocolate shortbread recipe. We live in California and had gone to The Huntington Library, there gift shop had spicy chocolate shortbreads I found this recipe and was able to recreate. I always use less sugar and I used red can chocolate guittard.

Thank you again. Also I found Zoe tv show and saw your chocolate chip cookie banging recipe. Will try that next

Hello
Is is possible to skip the yolk to make the Cocoa shortbread? If it cant be skipped what would you suggest substituting it with? I appreciate you may not have tried the alternatives but you are more likely to guess correctly than I.

Thank you
Kiran

I turned your chocolate and vanilla shortbread cookies into black and white striped cookies for my Christmas cookie box this year. I’ve done a version of this in the past, but your recipe is by far the best tasting and texture. My husband, and taste tester ;-), gave them a huge thumbs up. It will be now be my standard every Christmas. Thanks so much for this delicious recipe!

Hi! Loving your cookbook! Question for you, I have one of those short-bread pans-it’s like a pie pan with cute indentations that decorate/imprint your cookies, and then you can slice it up like a pie and you get pie shaped pieces of shortbread. I hope I’m explaining that okay 🙂 Can I use this recipe in that pan? I think those pans are made for what they call Scottish shortbread, but I don’t really know what the difference is between that and any old shortbread. Sorry for the long comment! Either way I’m definitely making these for my friend’s upcoming 80th birthday party because they look so so yummy. Thanks so much for all that you do and your generosity in sharing such fabulous recipes. Take good care and happy holidays! Valerie
