SCOTTISH SHORT BREAD....I think we all love short bread...This time I added cocoa.....It turned out not to sweet, but a very nice little cookie. I am still have a ceramic shortbread baking pan from 1993. With the cocoa added, you are not able to see the impressions from the pan you would normally see, they just do not show up....Sorry. My little ice skating bear, don't seem to care! He just keeps a twirling, when wound up...just like me!...LOL Nancy 12/16/12
