WHITE-CHOCOLATE CHERRY SHORTBREAD
Pretty, pretty. These cookies are ideal for Christmas or Valenitnes Day. Edible glitter is just too much fun to play with, try it if you can get it! Be sure to use shortening that is "not" butter flavored as it will turn the color from snow white to yellowed. I cannot get the Zaar computer to print "white sugar nonpareils", you only want white ones here.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spread cherries on paper towels to drain well.
