Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix together the butter and 1 cup of sugar until they are just combined. Add the vanilla. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt, then add them to the butter-and-sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a surface dusted with flour and shape into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough 1/2-inch thick and cut with a 3 by 1-inch finger-shaped cutter. Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges begin to brown. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- When the cookies are cool, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Put 3 ounces of the chocolate in a glass bowl and microwave on high power for 30 seconds. (Don't trust your microwave timer; time it with your watch.) Stir with a wooden spoon. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second increments until the chocolate is just melted. Add the remaining chocolate and allow it to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth. Stir vigorously until the chocolate is smooth and slightly cooled; stirring makes it glossier.
- Drizzle 1/2 of each cookie with just enough chocolate to coat it.

- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Coat an 8-inch ceramic shortbread mold with cooking spray; set aside.

Steps:
- For the marinade: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Season the ribs with salt and pepper. Working in batches, if necessary, add ribs to the skillet, and brown on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes per batch. Remove ribs from skillet, and place in a large roasting pan, bone-side down, in a single layer.
- To the same skillet, add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and golden, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Add the wine and thyme. Bring to a simmer, and remove from the heat. Pour over the meat. Cover, and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours, turning the ribs at least once.
- For the braise: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large, Dutch-oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the ribs from the marinade, and place in the Dutch-oven. Strain the marinade over the ribs, discarding the vegetables and herbs. Add the veal stock and thyme. Cover, and transfer to oven. Cook for 1 1/2 hours. Uncover, and cook, basting occasionally with the braising liquid, until the meat is falling off the bones and is well glazed, about 30 minutes more.

- Using a hand-held electric mixer (see notes), cream the butter, sugar, and vanilla until very creamy. Gradually beat in the cornstarch and flour. Continue to beat the batter until it looks like slightly overbeaten whipped cream, about 10 minutes. I always set a timer for 10 minutes as it feels like a long time.
- Drop the batter by heaping tablespoons (or 3 level tablespoons, to be exact) onto the prepared cookie sheets. Add a colored cherry or dried cranberry in the center of each cookie. Note: if you don’t have 3 cookie sheets wait until you remove the baked cookies from one and it cools completely. Putting the cookie sheets outside in the cold winter weather cools them down very quickly.
- Bake the cookies for approximately 15 minutes. You can bake two sheets at once, turning them halfway through. Remove the cookies from the oven just as they start to brown on the bottoms.
