This is really a comment on the Perfect Salted Shortbread.... which I made recently, after toggling in my mind between these two cookies. Glad I chose this one, but... When I put the first pan in the oven, the little discs started melting before setting up as cookies, so the cookies came out looking like a shortbread cookie hat with a crispy lacey brim. I checked my oven temp and it's exactly at 350. They also took a little longer than expected to cook. I bumped the temp up to 375 and that seemed to do the trick ~ they started setting before the butter could start to melt away at the bottom. I made and rolled the batter into logs the day before I baked them, so it was def not that they had not chilled enough.
