Super easy to make. Instead of adding extra butter, I just reduced flour by 1/4 cup. Worked perfectly. Chilled dough a few minutes and rolled out between waxed paper. I made large shortbread sticks so only got 2 dozen. 1/2 cup of melted chips was plenty to just dip the ends.

This was the first shortbread cookie recipe I ever made and it turned out wonderfully. I did have to add the extra 3T of butter to get the dough to work together. I also didn't dip them in chocolate just kept them plain and used a cookie press to shape. Everyone loves these and I will make them again!
