In one word: Amazing!! I would love to try this brown sugar shortbread recipe.
Judith Hanneman says
These are amazing!!! And so easy. Hardest part is waiting for the butter to soften–but with a microwave it's like instant gratification 🙂

I've made shortbread with confectioners sugar, with granulated sugar, and have even added coco powder, but never with brown sugar – I will have to try this. I wonder if I could use coconut oil in place of the butter?
Judith Hanneman says
I'm pretty sure you can sub coconut oil Karen. My vegan friends tell me it's what they sub for butter most times. And a good quality coconut oil would give a hint of coconut flavor which should be wonderful!!!
