Yum! I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract and 2 teaspoons of lemon extract to give it a lemon flavor. Then added some yellow sprinkles to the tops. For a little extra flavor and interest, I melted a little almond bark, mixed in some more lemon extract and yellow food color, and dipped the bottoms of the cookies in it when they were cool. I set them on wax paper to dry and they came out very nice! A refreshing treat for summertime or any time!

These really do melt in your mouth. They were easy to make and didn't last very long in my house. Next time, I think I will dip the tops in melted chocolate.

LOVED THEM!!! Made them yesterday and my husband called me at work today asking if I printed off the recipe. Even though I tried to tell him that it was easy and I can remember it he insisted that I print it off so we never lose it.

Like some of the others, I was skeptical about the ingredients. I made these based on the reviews for my grandaughter's 1st birthday party. They are awesome. I added a little vanilla and a little almond flavorings, put them through a flower shaped cookie press...you won't believe how good they taste. What a hit!!

Although this cookie was very easy to make, my husband and I were not fans of it. I must admit we are cookie connaseurs and so our standards are high. It was too crumbly and messy, although they looked tasty.

I cut the recipe in half and added a few tablespoons of almond meal, then baked them at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes. I also drizzled the tops of the cookies with milk chocolate. Overall, the cookies are very tasty and are even better the day (or two) after. However they are a little "powdery."

Loved it! I played around with the recipe, I added a little more butter and a few tablespoons of ground almonds. Then, I added just a bit of self raising flour, only a tablespoon or so. It was a bit hit or miss, I didn't really measure properly, but they came out perfect.

Great recipe... I followed it exactly... after the cookies cooled I dipped them in chocolate almond bark and sprinkled some toffee bits, nut topping, and coconut... my family loved these and they looked so pretty on a plate... even without the chocolate and toppings it was delicious!

A real winner. I sifted all the ingredients (minus butter) and used a cookie press to place them on the baking trays. A great shortbread. I really enjoyed the subtle amount of sweetness and texture.

If I could give this 10 stars I would. Wow! Melt in your mouth is right. Added some Vanilla extract to mixture before baking, and as suggested by another user, 350 for 9-10 minutes worked perfect. Not one fell apart. First dozen, made as is, 2nd made the raspberry jam imprints and 3rd dz I added mini chocolate chips to the dough. Made a little almond glaze to top them all. Over 1/2 were gone by the end of the night!! LOVE these cookies! Oh so light!

I used brown sugar and added a dash of salt. Really liked them fresh from the oven. Crumbly and soft when warm, crunchier when cold.
