Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

This sounds really really close -- if not spot on -- to what I've been looking for.

Some of the other recipes were good, but definitely different. Not what I was searching for.

Bisquick is basically a mixture of flour, baking powder and shortening -- so using plain flour would be different. My tendency would be to use the flour rather than the baking mix because the butter is the fat and the sherry is also a moistening agent. Baking powder would be unnecessary -- shortbread is butter, sugar and flour only -- and the texture of the cookies I'm after is decidedly shortbreadish.

Please post how they came out after baking! I'm going to give this a shot this afternoon unless I need to buy some more sherry.

Thank you for remembering my quest!
