Chocolate Bourbon Pecan shortbread image

In case the tart recipe I posted recently wasn't your thing, give this recipe a try. It uses the same topping but is on a shortbread crust instead of a tart. Don't you just love butter?

FOR THE CRUST
1 c flour
1/2 c brown sugar
6 Tbsp cold butter

4 Tbsp butter
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c maple syrup
