Swedish Rye Cookies


After a great 3 weeks vacation in Turkey and 5 weeks of procrastinating, I am finally back to blogging world. Let’s hope I will not fall behind as long as I did this time.
These cookie recipe came in my way in a local grocery store where you can buy bulk food. Despite the butter amount, I didn’t want to alter the recipe. Especially after finding great reviews on a website.
Apparently, you can use it as a Christmas tree decoration. So, if you are up to something new for your tree you might want to give this one a chance.
I liked eating these with a slice of Dubliner cheese on top, with a glass of freshly brewed tea.
* 1/2 cup butter* 1/4 cup white sugar* 1/2 cup rye flour* 1 cup all-purpose flour* 1/8 teaspoon baking powder* 1/4 teaspoon salt* 3 tablespoons water
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).2. Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in rye flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well and add enough water to moisten dough.3. Roll out onto floured board. The thinner the dough, the crispier the cookies will be. I have rolled the dough about 5mm thickness.4. Cut into 2 1/2 inch rounds using cutter or floured glass. Cut small hole off center with a thimble (to hang on tree when done).5. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) or until slightly brown. Cool and hang on tree with ribbon or yarn.
