Butter Cookies

Cookies are said to be derived from the dutch word called koekje which means " little cake".Cooks wanted to test the temperature of their oven so they made smaller samples of it for testing which however became a hit.

This is a simple butter cookie, and uses readily available ingredients.It is tasty,buttery and is crisp, which makes it an ideal companion for tea.

And no one can eat just one!!!.
