I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Savory Parmesan Shortbread

Thought I would give these a try. Nice little change from the usual sweet shortbread.

3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup parmesan
7/8 cup flour
1/2 cup ground almonds
2 tbsps tomato flakes or chopped sundried tomatoes

 Sprinkle of cayenne or paprika

 I picked up these tomato flakes at the bulk store. I went in with the intention of buying sundried tomatoes for this recipe, but decided to try these flakes instead.

Dump everything except the cayenne or paprika into a food processor and whirl until combined.

Take the ball of dough, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.

 When ready to bake take the dough out of the fridge and knead until workable but try not to overdo it. Roll out to 1/4" thickness on a floured board and use your favourite  cookie cutter. I used a 3" Christmas tree here.

 Place cookies on a parchment lined baking sheet, dust with a little cayenne or paprika and bake at 325F for 15-20 minutes.



Cool and ready for packaging!

Makes 32 - 3" cookies
