Shortbead Cookies ???? | Best Tasting Recipe | Very Easy To Make
Published December 4, 2020
These shortbread cookies have only 4 ingredients, are fast to make and come out so buttery. Around the holidays, Danish butter cookies are sold in cans but there are additives and the taste cannot compare with this recipe. Children can help make them and they will enjoy the process. But the best part is eating the crispy cookies with a glass of milk or hot cocoa. Adults will keep going back for more and can easily eat 5 or 6 at a sitting. Don't lose this recipe because this may become a family tradition. Usually cookies are pale white but if your like them brown and crispy, just adjust the baking time. You can dip them in chocolate or decorate them with candy sprinkles to give a festive flair.
