Snowflake cookies ❄❄❄

Hello dear friends!

Although there are plenty of cookie recipes available in books, magazines, or online, there is one recipe I always rely on when it comes to my annual Christmas baking session.

These snowflake cookies not only taste just heavenly, they are also really simple and quick to make.

That’s why this should be your to-go recipe whenever you feel a desire for a fresh and sweet-smelling sheet of cookies!

But what’s with the name?

If cookies rather than snow fell down from the skies in the winter, I’m pretty sure it would be these. They melt in your mouth as soon as they hit your tongue – just like little snowflakes.
