Danish butter cookies are these small buttery, light, crisp and delicate cookies that just melts in your mouth. Easy to make and beautiful to look at 🙂
Similar to Danish Butter Cookies, basic butter cookies and melting moments are my favourites which are also light and buttery.
Ingredients
200 gms – Unsalted butter, softened
150gms – Icing sugar
310gms – Plain flour
1 no – Large egg, fresh
1 no – vanilla bean
1 to 2 tbsp – Milk
2 tbsp granulated sugar, for decoration
Method
To make the Danish Butter Cookies preheat oven to 180°C.
Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Cream butter , vanilla and icing sugar till light and fluffy.
Add the egg and beat till well mixed.
Add the flour and fold using a spatula till the mixture comes together.
If the mixture is too dry, add the 1 tbsp to 2 tbsps of milk until a soft but firm batter is formed.
Fill the dough into a piping bag with your desired nozzle.
Create the cookie shapes using piping bag or simply dropping a tsp of batter onto the sheet.
Spring some sugar (optional) and bake for 10-15 minutes or till the cookies turn nice and gold.
Let cool for 10 minutes on a cooling rack then sprinkle some icing sugar.
