About Butter cookies

Butter cookies are classic, tender treats known for their rich, buttery flavor and crisp texture. Originating from Denmark and commonly associated with European baking traditions, these cookies are typically made from a simple blend of butter, sugar, flour, and sometimes a touch of vanilla or salt. Their simplicity allows the buttery taste to shine, making them a beloved snack worldwide. While butter cookies are a source of quick energy due to their carbohydrate and fat content, they should be enjoyed in moderation, as they are high in saturated fat and added sugars. On the positive side, their short ingredient list means they often contain fewer artificial additives compared to other cookies. A great pairing for tea or coffee, butter cookies offer a satisfying crunch and indulgent sweetness, perfect for occasional enjoyment as part of a balanced diet.
