If you are like me and love Marks and Spencers shortbread as they have a good amount of chocolate, rich buttery-tasting shortbread, that just melts in your mouth, then you will love these. In general, the addition of chocolate in any recipe always makes it taste so much better.
I struggle to get shortbread right and have tried a number of recipes, sometimes it is just crunchy, other times it’s just not buttery, and then most disappointedly they spread out too much argh!!!
Well, this recipe seemed to tick all the ‘issue’ boxes, they were easy to make and tasted great.
