Walkers Shortbread Cookies, Great for Making Meatballs

 Walkers Highlander Shortbread & Scottish Biscuit Assortment
 
I was really excited when my package full of Walkers Biscuits and Shortbread arrived!
  
I had big plans for the Highlander Shortbread Cookies

…but first I had to try the “Luxury Cookies” in the Scottish Biscuit Assortment.
  
My favorite flavor are the award winning Honey Oatmeal Cookies because they have the perfect amount of natural sweetness to compliment the mellow oatmeal flavor of the biscuit.
  
The White Chocolate & Raspberry cookies are slightly sweet, with a little burst of berry in every bite and extra-yummy dipped in milk.
  
Belgian Chocolate Chunk cookies were also in the assortment.  I really enjoyed the rich flavor of the big chunks of premium chocolate layered inside of these decadent treasures.
  
All three Scottish Biscuits have the delightful dryness and melt in your mouth goodness of buttery shortbread. 
  
They were splendid with some afternoon tea…

So what to make with the cookies?
  
Why not substitute crushed Walkers buttery shortbread cookies for breadcrumbs in meatballs!

…then fry them until golden brown and simmer with beef broth, sauteed onions & mushrooms. 

Add some luscious caraway spiced sour cream, just at the end of cooking, and you’ll have Walkers Highlander Meatballs & Sour Cream Caraway Sauce

…which is just perfect over Kluski noodles, with a sprinkle of crunchy crushed shortbread on top!
