Koekjes, meaning "cookies" in Dutch, are small, sweet baked treats that originated in the Netherlands and have since become popular worldwide. Traditionally made with simple ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, and eggs, koekjes come in a variety of flavors and textures, often enhanced with spices like cinnamon or vanilla and mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts. While they are an indulgent snack, koekjes are high in sugar and saturated fats, making them energy-dense but not particularly nutrient-rich. On the bright side, they can provide a quick source of carbohydrates and bring joy in moderation. Homemade versions allow for healthier modifications, such as using whole-grain flour or reducing sugar. Popular in Dutch culture alongside coffee or tea, koekjes remain a beloved treat best enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet.
