Time 25m

Yield 4 dozen

Tips:

  • Use high-quality butter for the best flavor and texture. Unsalted butter is recommended so that you can control the amount of salt in the cookies.
  • Make sure the butter is at room temperature before creaming it with the sugar. This will help to incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in lighter and fluffier cookies.
  • Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing will toughen the cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just beginning to brown around the edges. Overbaking will dry out the cookies and make them crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them. This will help to prevent them from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

These melt-in-your-mouth Swedish butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their simple ingredients and classic flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these Swedish butter cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
