VERY LEMON SHORTBREAD
These are tangy, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread with just the right amount of sweetness. I love citrus in baked goods and I am always trying to incorporate the flavor into something new. While lemon isn't new to shortbread, this happens to be my very favorite. note: it is not necessary to chill the dough but it makes it so much easier to cut out shapes
