the annual abuse of the pancreas

[macabre_grrl]

Giftmas (and the following January) is the only time of year when I allow myself to just eat cookies at will. I kind of hate myself for it, but they're tasty. The things I like best about this time of year are giving presents, strings of lights, and cookies

i made this recipe last night. i didn't like them when they first cooled (the "serve immediately" suggestion), but i like them better today, cold from the fridge.

if i made them again, i would completely replace the cornstarch with flour in the shortbread - you really taste the cornstarch and it's very distracting, yet unnecessary as an ingredient.. i'm confused. also, i'd want a higher shortbread to custard ratio.. there was a little too much custardy topping for my liking, but i LOVE shortbread, so yeah. but overall, they were good, if a bit time-consuming, and i'll probably make 'em again.

anytime you want to post your other three bar recipes.. feel free.. ;)
