Herbed Shortbread V 4 -- a gluten free, vegan snack

My son likes to pretend he's a puppy. He calls these his doggy-biscuits. He thinks they are an awesome treat. That's good news for me. The good news for you is they are easy to make. They are not really shortbread, obviously, but they have that sort of short mouth feel to me -- a little sandy and very rich. Depending on what herbs you use, you can tweak the flavour. My son is fond of the oregano and marjoram.
