These Almond Butter Cookies remind me of both shortbread and sugar cookies. They’re rich and buttery like shortbread.

Butterscotch Cashew Blondies
Here’s a yummy blondie recipe for all of you butterscotch and cashew fans! These blondies are thick and chewy, with lots of buttery, butterscotch flavor! Very rich.
