Mini Morsel Shortbread Squares

Warning: This recipe is rated PDT for "Pretty Darn Tasty." Shortbread is a really simple kind of cookie, usually soft in texture. This recipe is basically a shortbread cookie plus chocolate, and it's great. You can mainly taste the butter and chocolate in this recipe, and who doesn't like butter and chocolate? (That question is rhetorical, by the way; I realize that people have different tastes.) I feel like this recipe captures the simplicity of the shortbread cookie while mixing things up a little with the mini morsels. It's a simple dough to make and bake. After baking, you take the reserved mini morsels (that you didn't put in the dough) and sprinkle them on top. Once they're shiny, you spread them with a spatula until it becomes a smooth chocolate topping. While dense-looking, these cookies are soft and just right in texture - not too heavy, dry, or crumbly. I'd give these a 4 out of 5. ^_^

Cheers!
