For an added touch of sweetness, serve these crispy wedges with ice cream and B.G. Saelhof's strawberry sauce (recipe in recipe finder). "They taste great all by themselves, too," advises Carolyn Van Boening of Blue Springs, Nebraska. "I've taken the shortbread to community get-togethers and given some as gifts. Everyone seems to love the mocha flavor."-Carolyn Van Boening, Blue Springs, Nebraska

I love that this recipe uses melted chocolate instead of cocoa powder. It gives the shortbread a much more intense chocolate flavor.
