12/12/12 - Vanilla Cardamom Shortbread with Raspberry Glaze

I was thinking about 12/12/12. It's the last day for one hundred years that all three digits are the same. This special day should be honored with a cookie. How about vanilla cardamom shortbread with raspberry glaze?

I loved the flaky cookie, but I will add more vanilla and cardamom next time. As for the glaze, I just pureed raspberries and strained the puree, then mixed the raspberry juice into powdered sugar bit by bit. When it reached the consistency I wanted, I poured it on the cookies and spread it with a knife. A few blue sugar pearls, and the look is complete. I used this Cookie Recipe. Try it dipped in a fruity tea.

I couldn't resist

Keep it Sweet,
