ROSEMARY SHORTBREAD CHRISTMAS TREE COOKIES



Rosemary Shortbread Christmas Tree Cookies image

These treats are a tradition on our Christmas cookie platter. Because the scent of rosemary and the shape of its leaves remind me of pine needles, I cut these using a Christmas-tree cookie cutter. Feel free to use any shape cutter of your choice. These are fragile, so handle the dough and baked cookies carefully. -Amy Bartlett, Depew, New York
