About Dueling Grandmas

Grandma MacKenzie brought her shortbread recipe with her when she immigrated to America from the sea and wind swept Isle of Lewis off the coast of Scotland.  Four simple ingredients, but when they’re lovingly put together they create an extraordinary treat.  Our family has been enjoying and sharing this shortbread for four generations.

When I got married my Mother in Law, Grandma McIntyre shared her recipe for millionaires shortbread.  Wonderful shortbread, topped with scrumptious homemade caramel, then swathed in a layer of decadent chocolate, an unbelievably fantastic treat.  However, I knew to make Grandma McIntyre’s recipe better the shortbread had to be Grandma MacKenzie’s recipe, and Dueling Grandmas was born.

Everyone of our shortbreads are made by hand in small batches, with pride and love.  We love what we do, and we hope you enjoy these cookies as much as we do.

Our Varieties

The two that started it all Grandma MacKenzie's Original & Grandma McIntyre's Millionaires

Grandma MacKenzie's Original

The quintessential Shortbread. The shortbread upon which all other shortbreads are measured. Grandma MacKenzie uses four ingredients; Butter, Sugar, Flour and a speck of Salt. But it's how you put these ingredients together, and how you slowly bake them that creates the perfect cookie. At Dueling Grandmas every single shortbread you eat has been made by hand - literally. We bake in small batches mixing the product by hand. Making sure that the dough is never over-mixed so it will always come out buttery and flakey. We love shortbread, and we care about what we present to you. When you're enjoying Grandma Mackenzie's Shortbread, you're enjoying the best shortbread made.

Grandma McIntyre's Millionaires Shortbread

Millionaires shortbread got its name because they're so rich that when you eat one you feel like a millionaire. Dueling Grandmas Millionaires Shortbread is pinnacle of cookie creations. Grandma MacKenzie's shortbread, topped with luscious, sweet and creamy caramel, and then swathed in a layer of decadent Belgium milk chocolate,or Belgium dark chocolate. The buttery goodness of the shortbread, the melt in your mouth deliciousness of homemade caramel, combined with the greatness of chocolate. It is not possible to eat one without feeling good and smiling.

Two for the ages

Raspberry White Chocolate

Lemon White Chocolate

Raspberry White Chocolate

Raspberry and White Chocolate is one of the top three flavor combinations (you're thinking what are the other two right now, aren't you?) Grandma MacKenzie’s original shortbread topped with Raspberry preserves and then dressed up to go to the ball with a filigree of white chocolate. I can’t begin to explain how good this shortbread is. Raspberry white chocolate is a fantastic flavor combination and utilizing Grandma MacKenzie’s shortbread as the base to carry this flavor combination creates a little piece of heaven right here on earth.

Lemon White Chocolate

Real Lemon flavor! The Grandmas always use fresh lemon zest for each handmade batch of Shortbread. We would never use old dried out devoid of its natural goodness stored in a plastic jar lemon zest. Our Grandmas insist that lemons are freshly zested for each batch. Lemon shortbread might be good enough for most people, but not for the grandmas. They have to top the already delicious lemon shortbread with white chocoate to raise these shortbread to even greater heights.

Chocolate anyone?

Chocolate Chip

Toasted Almond with Chocolate

Chocolate Chip Shortbread

If you love Shortbread and you love Chocolate, then you’ll love Dueling Grandmas Chocolate Chip Shortbread. Straight forward, nothing fancy, nothing silly – Big Delicious Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips are mixed into Grandma MacKenzie’s Original Shortbread. That’s it, nothing but the greatness of Grandma Mackenzie's Shortbread and delectable Chocolate Chips.

Toasted Almond with Chocolate

Grandma MacKenzie's Original Shortbread loaded with fresh toasted Almonds. The Grandma's fresh toast the almonds for each handmade batch of shortbread insuring the best flavor. Typically that's good enough for most people, but not for the Grandmas. Each shortbread is topped with Chocholate to highten the flavor combination to its' greatest potential.

I sent some to my mom’s husband. He is the biggest sweet tooth in the world. He said they were the best cookies he has ever had and he’s 84 years old

— A Kelly

Gave a combo box to my BFF. She’s also a baker ‘best shortbread I’ve ever had and the caramel is so good, can taste made with real butter’
