Cocoa Nut Shortbread

Cocoa Nut Shortbread

Overview

I always wanted to put all the flavors I wanted into a cookie to make a cookie with rich texture and long aftertaste. I finally made it. A small cookie came out of the oven like magic, rich in the aroma of walnuts, the crunch of cashews, the slightly bitter cocoa, the richness of brown sugar, the sweetness of honey, and the compound caramel taste. I couldn’t stop eating even a few pieces. Baking made my busy life more refined and perfect👽
