i couldnt find a decent one ann myself even though i searche dthe web and local book shop cookery books so i made a shortbread recipe and added some cocoa to brown it and brown sugar instead of white and dried ginger for flavor and taste finally i broke a million trying to put the ribbon in the hole to hang on the tree i would say put the ribbon or string in the hole then cook it fro 10 minutes watching it so it doesnt catch fire

Try this one!
1 1/4 c. flour
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. each - cinnamon, ginger, ground cloves
1/2 c. each - molasses and water

1/4 c. water
1/4 c. shortening
1/4 c. sugar
PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Sift flour with baking powder, salt, baking soda and spices; set aside. Mix molasses and water until well blended; set aside.
BEAT shortening in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Blend in egg. Add flour mixture alternately with the molasses mixture, beating well after each addition. Pour into greased 8-inch square baking pan.
BAKE 35 min. or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cut into 9 squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Got this from Kraft's site - hope it is what you're looking for!
