ShortbreadSwee-T's

ShortBits and Champagne

Shortbread cookies aren’t just for coffee, tea and milk.  This New Year’s Eve, I plan on toasting the new year with shortbread cookies and champagne.  I’m keeping it simple, and my dainty ShortBits and sparkling white wine are a perfect combination for entertaining.

Are you looking for a great “small gathering” idea?  How about a “cookie exchange party” or a “wine and dessert tasting party”?  Try serving shortbread cookies with your favorite sparkling wine or champagne.

“Shortbread is a good match for a sparkling wine or blanc de blanc Champagne” (BrandonSun.com) .

“A dry champagne cuts through the rich, buttery flavor of the cookie” (SeattleTimes.com).

Shortbread and Champagne is a delectable delight (not too sweet, not too dry).  I’m looking forward to sipping champagne and nibbling on ShortbreadSwee-T’s ShortBits while sitting by the fire with friends and family.

Peace and Blessings and Happy 2012! —{-@
