This dough is best if you cover it and keep it in the fridge for a while. Roll it into balls, then cool them, then throw straight into the oven. If you try and bake immediately after mixing, the dough spreads way too much. Try adding some kind of peppermint flavor. I usually chop up whatever candy I have lying around. White chocolate peppermint bark is the best, but I've used andes mints or york peppermint patties. Its fun to flavor it with extract then dye half the dough red, and make swirly cookies.

I was so thrilled when I finally found this receipe. It's very similar to the same cookie that I remember having on my first day of kindergarten. The recipe does make quite a few cookies. I would recommend scaling the recipe down. This a short bread cookie so it isn't very sweet.

Very good taste and husband also likes. Delicate flavor and texture. Dough was hard to work with: too much quantity for my stand mixer and even though I chilled it overnight it was hard to handle. Next time I will make 1/2 batch.

I had to make these a couple of times to really get them right. They really do melt in your mouth. One little trick I do is to use butter flavored shortening.

It was very hard to keep the dough from crumbling. We only got a few sliced. The kids gave up right away.

When I made this recipe there is something wrong with it as after I added flour and confectioners sugar then the shortening....it was crumbly as there was not enough moisture for consistency. I added more shortening and some milk. Myabe there is something missing in it.
