Cabbage Cookies
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. From cabbage they make pies, pastries, casseroles. Have you ever made cookies? Try making such an interesting baked good. Here a shortcrust dough is prepared with the addition of stewed cabbage and onion. If you decide to make such cookies during Lent, you can freely replace butter with vegetable oil and get a Lenten cookie – it will also be tasty. This amount of dough yields 18–20 pieces. You can make cookies from half the dough and send the rest to the freezer—it keeps well for about three months. They can be served with first courses, with tea. The baking is ready. Serve at the table.
