Description
Sophisticated and beautiful, these buttery shortbread cookies combine tart cranberries with two of their best partners, dark chocolate and pecans. Because they're slice-and-bake, it's easy to make some now and save some for later. Keep them in mind for gift-giving, too. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Jill Silverman Hough.

This is one of my favorites for the holidays. Everyone enjoys them and they are easy to pull together. My daughter enjoys mixing in the chocolate, dried cranberries and nuts. It's an incredibly fun make for the whole family and a fabulous treat.

They are good but they aren't like amazing cookies. They are not very sweet, which I like and they don't really have any strong flavours. They would be good as like a cookie to serve with some coffee or tea
