About Afghan cookie
Afghan Cookies are traditional treats hailing from New Zealand cuisine, rather than Afghanistan. Known for their rich, crumbly texture, these cookies are made with butter, sugar, flour, cornflakes, and cocoa powder, creating a soft yet crunchy bite. Typically topped with chocolate icing and a walnut piece, they offer a blend of sweetness and slight bitterness from the cocoa. While they are indulgent and flavorful, Afghan Cookies are high in saturated fat and sugar, making them a less ideal choice for those seeking healthier options. Cornflakes add a slight nutritional edge with fiber, though the overall profile leans toward being indulgent rather than nutritious. Perfect as an occasional treat, they exemplify the intersection of simplicity and comfort food in New Zealand baking.
