A delicious, traditional Dutch holiday cookie that tastes similar to gingerbread. Simple, quick, wonderful! As we Dutchies say, ‘eet smakelijk!’
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups brown sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Dust 2 baking sheets with flour.
Step 2
Combine brown sugar and butter together in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, cinnamon, baking powder, cloves, and nutmeg. Mix in flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough comes together.
Step 3
Shape dough into cookies by hand or using cookie cutters. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until firm but not hard, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Cook’s Notes:
I always flour my baking sheets rather than greasing them when baking; I personally think it has a much better quality. If you do not want to flour the baking sheet, you must grease it.
