- .RH MOD.RECIPES-SOURCE BUTTER-COOKIES D "31 Dec 86" 1987
- .RZ "BUTTER COOKIES" "Simple butter cookies"
- After reading the ingredients on a can of imported Danish butter cookies,
- I thought: ``Hey! I can do this myself!'', so I developed the following
- recipe. It doesn't resemble the original too much, but considering that
- the cookies don't stay around for more than two days, and that even my
- mother liked them, they \fImust\fR be good!
- .IH "Makes 2\-3 dozen cookies)
- .IG "\(12 cup" "unsalted butter," "120 g"
- at room temperature
- .IG "\(12 cup" "granulated sugar" "90 g"
- .IG "1\(12 cup" "white flour" "150 g"
- .IG "1" "large egg"
- .IG "1 tsp" "vanilla extract" "5 ml"
- .IG "1\(12 tsp" "baking powder" "7.5 ml"
- .PH
- .SK 1
- Beat the butter with the sugar.
- .SK 2
- Add the egg and vanilla and beat until you get a uniform mixture.
- .SK 3
- Mix the flour and baking powder and gradually blend them into the mixture.
- When you're done, you should have a rather sticky dough.
- .SK 4
- Shape the dough into balls, about
- .AB "1 inch" "2 cm"
- in diameter. Roll them in sugar
- and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving about an inch of space
- between cookies, so that they don't stick together when they expand.
- .SK 5
- Bake in preheated oven at
- .TE 350 175
- for 20 minutes.
- .SK 6
- Remove from oven, let them cool for a while, and start eating right away.
