     Evelyn Leon was kind enough to send me a Shortbread Cookie Mix to review. I was excited to see what the Shortbread Cookies would taste like. I was also excited to make these cookies easily with the cookie mix. No measuring and no hassle! That is how I love to bake! Simply add butter to the mix and you are set! Awesome! The Shortbread Cookie Mix comes in a pretty gold package that would be perfect to wrap a bow around and give as a gift to your family or neighbors. 

flavor them with one of our fantastic extracts."

     The directions to make the Shortbread Cookies are very simple! The directions are as easy as cutting a cup of butter into the mix until dough is formed. Roll out the dough to 1/4" thick and then use cookie cutters to make 3 " cookies. The cookies bake at 350 for 11-12 minutes. The cookies can also be dipped into chocolate with added sprinkles or chopped nuts on top for an additional fancy look and an additional great taste.
