As a long time shortbread lover and a first time shortbread baker, I have to tell you this recipe is great! I doubled the recipe and I'm glad I did. I didn't think they were turning out very well because they took so long to bake and were not browning at all. I turned up the heat to 350 degrees F and cooked 25 minutes. I am a purist, I made these plain without the chocolate chips and just sifted powdered sugar over the top after they were cool. I took these to a Christmas get together with friends and they were a hit! Thank you very much for the recipe. Hali in Ontario~

This was a really good recipe but it turned out to be too much for my blender. I think I fried the motor. :) I too used red chili powder and cumin. Delicious!

I wanted an easy recipe for shrimp dip. I used 2 packages of cream cheese, beat it to soften with 2 Tbsp light Miracle Whip, blended about 2 handfuls of thawed frozen shrimp cut fine and a couple of oz of cocktail sauce. Tasty and easy. Thanks for the idea~
