Cranberry Pistachio Shortbread #desserts #christmas

I as of late arrived in JoyOfBaking site and was flabbergasted at the gathering of plans. I have bookmarked many as of now. This shortbread grabbed my eye promptly as a result of the red and green shading and I was searching for something to prepare for Christmas. Indeed, I was not able choose this and sugar treats since I as of late purchased dough shapers and my 3 yr old has been needing to remove treats. Well I chose to go with this first and time allowing make the sugar treats later.

This shortbread is anything but difficult to make and tastes incredible. Obviously it is stacked with margarine, however it is Christmas and furthermore the period of Sinful Delights here !!. Plan ahead on the off chance that you will heat these since the mixture needs to rest for atleast 2 hours in the ice chest. This is significant as we need the mixture to be firm when cutting.

Companions, have an awesome Christmas and appreciate the treats. Off to the formula. Formula from JoyOfBaking. I split the first formula.
