As of today my little sister (who I am very close with) left for a four year stint to go study in Australia. Since she will be spending the holidays on her own so far from friends and family, I wanted to see if anyone here could recommend some cookie recipes that can survive being shipped about two weeks and still arrive intact. Does anyone have any tried-and-true gems they'd be willing to share?
I've heard shortbread travels well and has a long shelf life, but I've never made it, so any advice, recommendations or recipes on that score would be appreciated as well. I want to do everything I can to send a little bit of home her way over the holidays (and planning it all is helping distract me from how much I already miss her, which helps a bit :cry: ).
I searched for other posts on this topic, but was very surprised to not turn anything up. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
