Blue Ribbon Recipe
Buttery and slightly crisp, these festive raspberry shortbread cookies are a nice treat. With the color of the sweet raspberry jam in the center, they remind us of Christmas or Valentine's Day. What pulls all the flavors together is the lovely white chocolate drizzle.

How To Make raspberry shortbread with a white chocolate drizzle
-
Step 1Cream butter and sugar until fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add vanilla extract.
-
Step 2Slowly add flour, 1/2 cup at a time.
-
Step 3Mix until a soft dough forms.
-
Step 4Roll into 1 inch balls. Then press down with your thumb to make a "well" in the middle of the cookie dough.
-
Step 5With a small spoon, drop raspberry jam into indentation in the center of the cookie.
-
Step 6Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
-
Step 7Take the white chocolate and pulverize it into dust in a food processor or chop it finely. Place in a sturdy Ziploc freezer bag and microwave for 10 seconds at a time until melted. Cut a small snip in the corner of the bag.
-
Step 8Drizzle melted white chocolate over the cookie. Once white chocolate has hardened, the cookies can be eaten or frozen for a few weeks in an airtight container.
