12 Days of Christmas: Toblerone Shortbread

Welcome to day eleven of 12 Days of Christmas! It’s Christmas Eve and we need something special for that big jolly man who travels the world to deliver presents to children big and small in just one night (honestly how does he do it?!)

We may never know the magic involved in Santa’s delivery system, but I’m pretty sure that by the time he arrives at my house, he’s going to be hungry. I’m also pretty certain that Santa is a baking connoisseur and would really appreciate that extra little bit of effort I put into the snacks we leave him.

This recipe is a foolproof way to bake shortbread, which can sometimes be a little bit finicky and has chunks of Toblerone in it too. Is there anything else to say here?

Merry Christmas everybody! I hope Santa is good to you this year.
