Rolled shortbread cookies are the ones that scream Christmas to me. These are one of two types of holiday cookies I make every single year. The other ones are my whipped shortbread cookies. It’s no surprise that these are also the two types of cookies my Nana always makes every year too.

It’s the first cookies the kids ask me to make every year. They even talked my into making shortbread bats for Halloween this year, lol. I’ve got to say, it definitely gives me the warm fuzzies seeing the love for these cookies going strong four generations in (at least four generations, I don’t know where Nana got the recipe from).
