Chewy and sweet, these Swedish cookies take a bit more time to make... but are well worth the extra effort.

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup white sugar
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup butter, softened
1 egg
2 teaspoons water
½ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Butter a small cake pan.
  • To prepare Nougat: In a frying pan place 1/2 cup of sugar over medium heat and stir. Sugar will turn into liquid caramel. When syrup becomes dark brown, pour into cake pan and let harden.
  • Crush nougat in a mortar or between waxed paper with a hammer into small pieces.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Separate the egg and add the yolk and water. Blend thoroughly. Stir in 1/2 cup of sifted flour and the nougat. Mix well. Sift in the rest of the flour.
  • Knead the dough lightly on a board. Roll the dough into a 1-inch in diameter log. Slice into 1/2-inch thick cookies. Place on greased cookie sheets 3 inches apart and press down with a fork.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes.

These cookies were a disappointment. The nougat filling was too hard and the cookies were too chewy. I won't be making these again.

The cookies were easy to make and the nougat filling was delicious, but the cookies themselves were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some chopped nuts or dried fruit next time.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They're also very rich, so a little goes a long way.
