A while back I was with my grandmother. I had brought her some cookies and in addition to being a tester, she is also the first to give feedback: how is the taste and what could be improved. Until, in addition to the compliments, I was also asked if I could make two old recipes. She hasn’t made it herself in years, but today I will describe one of these two recipes. I’m sure you’ll like these cookies. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how to make Grandma Cookies.
What is the definition of Grandma Cookies

Grandma Cookies
Everyone has a favorite cookie. You may have eaten a cookie in the past that you have fond memories of. Today’s cookie is one such example. I have eaten this a number of times in the past and it resembles the Dutch cookie ”kletskoek”.
This recipe is really old. By old I mean over 100 years. It was my grandmother who learned the recipe from her mother. So it came to me through my grandmother. The recipe only has 3 ingredients and you need the same amount of each ingredient.
You will need an oven for this recipe. You can decide for yourself how big you make the cookies. Importantly, when you’re done making them, they look like they’re very brittle. When you let them get cold, they get a little harder. You just have to be patient!

Grandma Cookies Recipe
This cookies recipe is easy. You need the follow ingredients: unsalted butter, all purpose flour and granulated sugar.
The first thing you need to do is to unwrap the salted butter. Grab your digital food scale and start measuring 100 grams of butter, 100 grams of all purpose flour and 100 grams of granulated sugar. Put the butter and sugar in the mixing bowl. Sieve the all purpose flour in the mixing bowl.
Start mixing with your hands. That’s the best way to ensure that everything is mixed together. Make a round ball from the dough. Measure the ball on the digital food scale. You can now decide how many grams the cookies can be. If you want to make 9 cookies, divide the amount by 9.
Create the small round balls and add these on a baking plate. Make sure the baking plate contains baking paper. Another tip: make sure the cookies have enough space on the plate. When all the cookies are on the plate grab your fork. Squeeze the cookies slightly with your fork.
Preheat the oven on 180 degrees celcius. When the oven has the right temperature you can bake the cookies for 15 minutes on 180 degrees celcius. After the 15 minutes let the cookies cool completely. Enjoy these amazing Grandma Cookies.
