They are individually wrapped for freshness and convenience. This makes them perfect for sharing or enjoying on the go.

These cookies are ready to eat straight from the package. They are perfect for a quick snack or a sweet indulgence. For a more decadent experience, try warming them slightly in a low oven for a few minutes until the chocolate just begins to soften.

How it differs from similar foods
Compared to plain shortbread, these cookies offer the added richness of milk chocolate. The chocolate melts slightly when baked or warmed, creating pockets of gooey sweetness. The Ghirardelli chocolate provides a distinct creamy and familiar flavor profile that sets them apart from shortbread with other types of chocolate or no chocolate at all.
Who it is for
Anyone who enjoys the classic combination of buttery shortbread and smooth milk chocolate will appreciate these cookies.
How to keep the rest
To maintain their freshness and texture, store any remaining cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Keep them away from direct sunlight and heat. This will prevent the chocolate from melting and the cookies from becoming stale. Ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use.
