Almond-Tipped Shortbread Fingers image

My husband enjoys these cookies so much that he usually can't wait until they're set to start eating them. If you'd like, try dipping them into melted semisweet chocolate and chopped pecans.

The dough was a bit dry and crumbly, but the shortbread fingers turned out well in the end. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise they were good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
