From mccormickgourmet.com, this is a very different and unique scone. I would more call it a cookie if I were tagging it!

I LOVE shortbread. Rich, buttery, authentic...literally 'melts' in your mouth....

My 'new culinary find ingredient' of late has been lavender. I am enjoying all the ways it can be used.

Thus, I wish I could give you a '10' for this one :)


Thank you so much for my "10", kukla! I too am a shortbread lover from way back. I've been having some difficulty finding lavender as even the McCormick product is hard to locate. Be assured that as soon as I find what I need, I'll be making this creation! Thanks for the five, my friend.
