DANISH BUTTER COOKIES



Danish Butter Cookies image

These staple Christmas cookies, often sold in a decorative blue tin at the grocery store, are similar to sweetened, crispy shortbread but with an unbelievable vanilla-almond flavor. Our homemade version is even better-- soft on the inside, crispy on the outside, with a fresher, lighter and more delicate taste than the industrial made treats. You can serve them plain, or jazz them up with melted chocolate and sprinkles or a maraschino cherry in the middle to give you all the holiday feels.

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 cookies

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

Time 27m

Yield 2 dozen, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted, divided
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Combine flour and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  • Add butter, pecans, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and vanilla, stir well until blended. Batter will be stiff.
  • Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake at 400 degrees fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove cookies to wire racks to cool slightly.
  • Roll cookies in powdered sugar, and cool completely on wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cookies spread evenly and bake more consistently.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.

  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for baking oatmeal cookies is 350°F (175°C).
