These delicious, melt-in-the-mouth whipped shortbread cookies are topped with little dollops of frosting and a tiny glace cherry. They’re super easy to make too.
I could not contemplate a Christmas without these little whipped shortbread cookies.
This recipe came with me in my battered old notebook when I immigrated across the big pond from the East Coast of Canada to Shetland, my remote island home in the North Sea, and I make them year after year at Christmas-time.

Lovely little treats!
I love your photos – they look very festive cookies – and I love your story about your christmases in Canada – shortbread has always seemed like Christmas to me but I’ve never seen it presented this way. Hope you have a very happy christmas
Thank you Johanna 🙂 Merry Christmas to you too, and all the best for 2014! xx
So cute Elizabeth and festive too. Thanks for entering Treat Petite. Happy Holidays 🙂
