Shortbread cookies are a rather dignified affair, often paired with tea and leaning towards savory with their light sweetness and flavors like lemon and rosemary. These cookies are quite humble, however, in both their ingredient list and their preparation. This rich cookie — which sometimes takes on the crispy, snappy quality of a cracker — doesn’t require a stand mixer, rolling pin, or cookie cutter, and can be stashed in the freezer for an impromptu holiday cookie plate or an equally important tea party with your favorite toddler.
