Toblerone Shortbread



Ruthann, my beautiful sister-in-law, sent me this recipe. She manages to be a great mum, squat more that most athletic men, and bake all at the same time!! She's very cool.

This is a wonderful and decadent Christmas (or New Years) treat! Thanks ru!

1 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup cornstarch

2 -3 Toblerone chocolate bars

Cream butter and sugar in a medium bowl. Beat until light and fluffy.

Add flour and cornstarch gradually while beating continuously. Beat until light.

Take one teaspoon of shortbread mixture and slightly flatten between palm of your hands.

Place one triangle of Toblerone in the center of the shortbread and top with another slightly flattened teaspoon of shortbread mixture. Seal edges of cookie perimeter with fingers.

Bake in oven at 375 degrees F for 12-14 minutes.


Enjoy!

  1. Hey Sarah! I have to post about a meal I had last Monday.

    It was prepared and cooked by one of your culinary idols: Jennifer Charles.

    Farfelle pasta with perfectly cooked shrimp, (very tough to do in a pasta where it continues to cook) in a fresh tomato sauce, with moist flavorful chicken cubes. It was done to perfection, evidenced by my 2 huge servings. Simple, like all great Italian dishes, and fresh ingredients.

    It was swallowed down by several glasses of leftover Christmas wine and Voila! Perfecto! A dish and evening worth posting!
