Vaniljkakor (Swedish Vanilla Cookies) image

This is one of my favorite cookies. It's from my Swedish Grandma. They are very simple, but I think that's what I like about them. Very tender and rich. Photo taken by Leah's Kitchen.

Categories     Cookies

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 c unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 Tbsp good vanilla
2 1/4 c sifted flour, sift first then measure (*you must do this or you'll add too much flour)
1/3 c raspberry or strawberry jam, or assorted
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Cream butter and sugar well. Gradually add sugar, and cream until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolk, vanilla and flour, blend thoroughly. Roll into walnut-sized balls and place on greased cookie sheet. Make a nice indentation in top of each cookie, I use the end (the handle end)of a wooden spoon for this. Put a little bit of jelly or jam into each indentation. Bake in 350º oven for at least 15 minutes or til pale golden yellow. Cool, then sift powdered sugar over them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as good as the picture. They were a bit dry.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. They ended up being more like balls than cookies.

The cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.
