Nutty Chocolate Chunk Shortbread

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 1/2 cups unbleached wheat flour
  
• 3/4 cup soy non-hydrogenated vegan margarine, chilled
  
• 1/2 cup cane vegan sugar
  
• 1/4 cup rolled oats
  
• 1 cup vegan chocolate, chips or chopped
  
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
  
• 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
  
• a couple dashes of cardamom and cinnamon
  

Directions:

Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mix all of the ingredients except the margarine together.
Cut the cold margarine in pieces and add to the
ingredients. You can use a pastry cutter to mix in the
margarine, I like to use my hands. Mix everything until
the margarine is fully incorporated with the rest of the
ingredients and a soft dough is formed. Put the dough into
a 7×9 inch pan and press and flatten it in.
Bake it for about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden
and the edges are browned.
