I live in Missouri, but many of my "family tradition" recipes come from New Zealand. My parents moved there when I was 1, and that's when I grew up, so some have a "Down Under" heritage. These special-occasion cookies bring back warm memories of my childhood, and I'm going to make sure they're passed on to the next generation in my family...no matter where they live!

Yummy taste, but not shortbread like at all. More like a very crunchy vanilla cookie. And much harder to handle than shortbread - dough kept crumbling apart when I was trying to roll before chilling. They tasted good dipped in melted chocolate.

This recipe is fantastic! I ended up making shortbread jam cookies with this recipe, and my mother who doesn't like overly sweet things said that this was the perfect recipe!
