Any issues with doubling the recipe? These would be great for baked food sales!
I haven’t tried doubling it but I think it will be fine to double.
I’m a sucker for the PB and chocolate combination… and I really want one or two of these now! How could they not be good?!

Hi paula cant wait to make your peanut butter shortbread squares. What size baking sheet works best?
oh my goodness, I can’t believe I left that out! I used a 9×9 inch square cake pan. A 8×8 would work too. I’ll update the recipe to reflect this as well. Thanks, I hope you enjoy them!
I’m a sucker for anything that starts with shortbread! I want one!
