Recipes FAQ

Can I use salted butter instead of unsalted?

Yes, but you may want to decrease the amount of salt called for in the recipe to compensate for the saltiness of the butter.

Can I use a different type of flour?

Yes, you can use whole wheat flour, almond flour, or any other type of flour you prefer. Just keep in mind that the texture and taste of the cookies may be slightly different.

Can I freeze the dough?

Yes, you can freeze the dough for up to a month. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store it in the freezer. When you're ready to bake the cookies, let the dough thaw in the fridge overnight before rolling it out.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your butter is softened but not melted. This will help the cookies hold their shape while baking.
  • Don't overmix the dough or the cookies will become tough.
  • If you want to make the cookies more festive, try adding food coloring to the dough or using different shaped cookie cutters.
  • Experiment with different toppings, such as dried fruit, shredded coconut, or crushed candy canes.

Enjoy these easy CNY cookies with your loved ones during the holiday season!
