Cookies
Description
There are different variations of this cookie: some make them with almonds, others add cinnamon or ground sesame. As a base, you can use regular butter or lard (yes, really, don't be surprised). Let the cookies cool before serving. They are especially delicious with a cup of coffee—serve them cooled or slightly warm.
