Double-Dipped Shortbread Cookies image

My mom and her friend did a lot of cookie swaps together. They were always finding new recipes to share, including this one. There's something about a dipped cookie that makes it seem so special, so we usually save these for the holidays. -Ginger King, Big Bear Lake, California

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted almond flour for the all-purpose flour. The cookies turned out great! They were just as delicious as the original recipe.

These cookies were really dry. I think I overbaked them. I'll have to try again and be more careful.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape. They spread out a lot in the oven. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. They were still very good and I would definitely make them again.

I'm not a huge fan of shortbread cookies, but these ones were really good. They were light and crumbly, with a nice buttery flavor.

I was a bit skeptical about the double-dipping process, but it really does make a difference. The cookies have a much richer flavor and a more even color.

These cookies are absolutely delightful! They have a rich, buttery flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. I especially love the double-dipping process, which gives them a beautiful golden brown color and a slightly crispy exterior.
