Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix together the butter and 1 cup of sugar until they are just combined. Add the vanilla. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt, then add them to the butter-and-sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a surface dusted with flour and shape into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough 1/2-inch thick and cut with a 3 by 1-inch finger-shaped cutter. Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges begin to brown. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- When the cookies are cool, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Put 3 ounces of the chocolate in a glass bowl and microwave on high power for 30 seconds. (Don't trust your microwave timer; time it with your watch.) Stir with a wooden spoon. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second increments until the chocolate is just melted. Add the remaining chocolate and allow it to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth. Stir vigorously until the chocolate is smooth and slightly cooled; stirring makes it glossier.
- Drizzle 1/2 of each cookie with just enough chocolate to coat it.

PRIZE SHORTBREAD
My mother made this every year for Christmas, and her daughters still do. Because it's very delicate, we have always just rolled out the dough and cut it into squares. The "edge" pieces get baked, too, and that what the cook and the kids get to nibble while the rest go in the freezer till the holidays. They're great, rich, and delicate - they shatter first when you bite them, and then melt in your mouth. Use fresh nutmeg for the best flavour.

SHORTBREAD COOKIES - PRIZE WINNING
I loved Lorna Doones as a kid. They were pricey, so Mom didn't buy them often. I developed this recipe as a young bride over 40 years ago. I entered them in a County Fair once and took a blue ribbon. We often just eat them plain, or dusted w/powdered sugar. If you make them in a triangle shape you can easily dip them into a lemon...

Steps:
- 1. With electric mixer beat the margarine/butter until light and fluffy. Mix in the powdered sugar, until all blended, then the flour. Mixture will get crumbly.
- 2. Stop mixer and gather dough into a large ball. It should easily pull away from the bowl and feel soft and tender.
- 3. Sprinkle a large piece of waxed paper with a bit of powdered sugar. Set dough on paper, top with another piece of waxed paper and pat down to a flatter level. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
- 4. When cooled, divide into smaller sections, and roll down a section at a time between waxed paper to about 1/4" thick. Cut into desired shape with a butter knife that has been dipped into powdered sugar for ease of cutting.
- 5. Place cut cookies onto cookie sheet covered in parchment paper. I prefer air-filled baking sheets or crockery type (Pampered Chef) as opposed to teflon coated. Bake at 350 for 20 min or until edges are just golden. Teflon sheets may bake faster so watch the time.
