Craving for some real strong flavor butter cookies. Searched and found the below recipe shared by Miki Food Archives. Since I got some dried cranberries at home, I decided to give it a try since it was quite a popular bakes during the last cny. I'm trying out just half of the recipe since it's for own consumption.
It turned out the shortbread smells buttery and taste awesome. Almost like those butter cookies that you find in those blue tins - Kjeldsens Danish Butter Cookies. Was very surprise on the first bite, never imagine combination of those few simple ingredients can make such a tasty cookies. Great for any occasions.
