About Boterkoek
Boterkoek, translated as "butter cake," is a rich and dense Dutch pastry originating from the Netherlands. This traditional treat is made using simple ingredients: flour, sugar, and a generous amount of butter, often with a hint of almond extract or lemon zest for added flavor. It is baked into a golden, slightly caramelized crust and has a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Boterkoek is typically enjoyed in small slices due to its richness. While it offers a notable source of energy from fats and carbohydrates, it is high in sugar and saturated fats, making it a less healthy option when consumed in large quantities. Moderation is key when indulging in this classic dessert, as it is best enjoyed as an occasional treat. Its simplicity and bold flavor make it a beloved staple in Dutch cuisine, perfect for coffee breaks or festive gatherings.
