After a wonderful vacation week where someone else cooked, I am back to cooking and baking! The Irish Soda Bread earlier this week was a huge hit, so much so that my hubbie requested it again! This time I made two loaves, one regular and one with an additional 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, oh my gosh, it is amazing!!! I have to post a picture!

| Yummy!!! |
I love cheese bread, so I am super excited to be able to make it!!
Anyway, back to the wonderful cookies we made this week. This is the first time I made sables or any kind of shortbread, it was surprisingly easy. The dough was really crumbly, but I was able to roll it nicely in the plastic wrap into logs.

| Chocolaty goodness! |
After putting them in the freezer for awhile, they were ready to cut! I did some pretty uneven rolling in sugar and started cutting. The only issue I had was that my knife kept catching on the big (didn't quite cut them small enough) pieces of chocolate and breaking the cookies!

End result, not the prettiest cookies I have made, but so yummy! Not too sweet, super chocolaty, perfect for a decadent snack!
