Shortbread cookies with tangerines
Description
Delicious baked treats for the whole family. A tasty idea—why not bake cookies with tangerines? The cookies turn out sweet (I'd add a small piece of lemon to each one) and are a big hit with children. The preparation process is very simple, and you can easily bake them in time for afternoon tea to delight your family. The baked goods are ready. Serve at the table.
