Shortbread with Chocolate and Candied Walnuts
from Seriously Simple Parties by Diane Rossen WorthingtonThese cookies are so easy to prepare and are always a crowd-pleaser. It’s easy to find candied walnuts or pecans so no need to make them from scratch. Since the cookies are quite rich, small squares are the perfect serving size. Present these on a pretty platter. A bowl of berries would be a nice accompaniment. If you keep some of these in your freezer, you’ll have an instant dessert for any impromptu gathering.
Makes 16 squares
Shortbread
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flourTopping
1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup candied walnuts, choppedGet full the recipe.
Proof that cats are better than dogs? You don’t even need to watch the video; the proof is in the Literary Cat.

Here is our Friday eReader. This week he’s a member of the N.Y.P.D. Earlier today an Argentinian Street Photographer sent me this photograph, referring to it as his own “Friday eReader”. Check out the rest of his work here.
It was a short week at the UNYPL as I was away for half of it. Here is the weekend again, and here is how it keeps going around.
Have a good weekend!
