Aisling's Decadent Chocolate-Chip Shortbread
For my day at The Write to Cook, I decided to make chocolate-chip shortbread. I chose to make this because it is my grandmother’s recipe, and it was really fun to make. The first time I made it, I cut it into shapes, but this time I decided to do it in one tray. We had to rub in the butter which took a while, but it worked. I also chose to use chocolate chips because I really like chocolate. I enjoyed making them and will make them again.
