Whipped Shortbread Cookies

This is a recipe I got from a mission-serving friend. I baked some up, today, and they are delish; especially if you like shortbread. They have the shortbread flavor, but are so light, they melt on your tongue. I did use candied cherries on mine, but I'm going to experiment with other things. Maybe I'll try a piece of a candy cane, a pecan, a chocolate kiss; I don't know, but this is a keeper recipe for me.
