These cookies will melt in your mouth! HOJARASCAS are a traditional Mexican-Style shortbread cookie

Hojarascas are a tradition in my family. Whether it be a family celebration or the holidays, someone will always make hojarascas. These Mexican shortbread cookies have a delicate texure and melt in your mouth. They are coated in a cinnamon sugar dredge and make a perfect homemade treat.
