About Langues de chat

Langues de Chat, translating to "cat tongues" in French, are delicate, thin cookies originating from French cuisine. Traditional recipes feature simple ingredients such as flour, sugar, butter, egg whites, and vanilla extract. Their long, slender shape and crisp texture make them a popular treat alongside coffee, tea, or as part of dessert platters. While charmingly indulgent, Langues de Chat are high in refined sugar and butter, contributing to their rich flavor and delicate crumb. As a calorie-dense food, they should be enjoyed in moderation if you're watching your intake. They’re not particularly nutrient-rich, but their light, airy composition can offer a delightful way to satisfy a sweet craving without overindulging. These cookies are beloved for their simplicity and elegance, embodying the finesse of French baking while providing a refined treat for special occasions or casual enjoyment.
