Oatmeal Shortbread Recipe

Oatmeal Shortbread Recipe Rating 0

Crunchy oats give this traditional shortbread recipe a new twist. These buttery confections are simply good to the very last crumb-especially with a cup of hot coffee or eggnog. I've also learned that they keep for months...if you hide them well enough!
