In a small metal bowl, combine the 2 types of chocolate and melt them gently over a pot of simmering water or a double boiler. Cool chocolate to room temperature. Make the shortbread dough: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the butter and sugar. Blend until smooth and "creamed," 3 to 5 minutes. Mix in the cooled melted chocolate. Sift the flour and add to the butter mixture and blend on low speed to incorporate the flour. Do not over mix. Remove the dough from the bowl and refrigerate for a few minutes to chill. Make the chocolate sauce: In a medium-sized pot, bring the cream to a gentle simmer. Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the white chocolate pieces. Allow the mixture to sit and cool for a minute. All of the white chocolate should easily melt into the cream. Whisk in the sour cream and taste for seasoning. Cook's Note: Sour cream is temperamental when heated, so take care that your mixture never gets overly hot. If so, cool a little before incorporating. Set aside at room temperature. Press the shortbread dough evenly into a 9 by 13 by 1-inch greased non-stick baking pan. Place in the center of the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the dough is fairly firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and allow the shortbread to cool for about 10 minutes. Cut into 12 rectangles, 4 by 2 inches, and then cut diagonally across rectangles to form 24 long triangles for good dipping. Arrange shortbread wedges on a tray with the white chocolate sauce in a bowl for dipping. OMG, these sound so yummy...can't wait to try these too!

Thank you for this...I'm going to try it this weekend......I got on some site and it said i needed a candy thermometer and all this other crap and I'm thinking...um hello...I'm not godiva!

I'd like to make some as gifts for coworkers...and some for DH and me...yum!

McDonalds : hamburgler

I was lucky that my two little devils never made to the wedding stuff, but they did manage to eat my couch, latop battery cord, part of an interior wall...the list goes on and on... Glad you have time to replace everything and know what you mean about not staying mad at them!

I went to the dollar store and kinda went nuts on dog toys...so much so that the check out woman said "wow, you must really love you dogs"...LOL!

birds : nest

the movie Elf : cute

Besides price, is there a big difference between models? We have wood floors throughout and two pups that bring in a lot of dirt...I really want one, but have read mixed reviews, so I'm undecided at this point.

awesome picts - you guys looked amazing and the flower girls were over the top adorable! Congrats!!

butter : baking

Done : holiday shopping

I want one and for $80.00 bucks, I think I'll have to go get one!
