Store-bought dulce de leche and pulverized pecans give this tender, buttery shortbread a nuttiness and depth of flavor you can’t quite put your finger on. We love the contrasting look of white nonpareil, but feel free to roll the dough in whatever sprinkles you please.

Digestive Cookies
Wheat germ, the nutrient-rich heart of wheat kernels, gives these cookies their hearty, nutty crunch while also keeping them tender and crumbly. You can often find wheat germ in the bulk bin aisle of the grocery store, but toasted rolled oats or ground flax can be used in its place for a similar texture. These cookies are ideal for making in advance, as their flavor and texture improve after a few days. The butter and milk can be substituted with plant-based alternatives without sacrifice, so make them vegan if you want.

Spatter Paint Sugar Cookies
There’s no waiting around for butter to soften here—like pie crust, this cookie dough starts with cold butter. It also comes together entirely in a food processor, containing the mess (and making these kid-friendly—we bet yours will be interested in pressing PULSE). Use gel food dye here if you can find it—it achieves the most vibrant color with just a drop or two.
