Chocolate Chip Shortbread

Cut the butter into small pieces, add the flour and sugars, rub in until the resembles breadcrumbs. Add half the chocolate pieces and form the dough into a ball. Roll the dough into a log then using a sharp knife cut into slices about 7mm thick. Place the slices onto a baking tray then push a few more pieces of chocolate onto the top. Bake for 15-25 minutes in an oven preheated to 170 degrees centigrade. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.

These biscuits are part of my quest to make Maryland style cookies. These are a little crunchier than Marylands but still tasty.
