The Best and Easiest Earl Grey Shortbread Cookies

The Best and Easiest Earl Grey Shortbread Cookies, made in a food processor

With everyone stuck inside, baking has become a way to pass time and breads and cookies seem to be the items people are gravitating to. I don't blame them. Baking brings such a sense of calm and eating something you've made by hand is comforting in such a crazy time.

I LOVE a good London fog and a cookie from our local coffee shop. But, with that being a distant thing to have again, I decided to marry the two together in this simple cookie recipe that tastes UNREAL.
