Cookies
Description
The pastry is prepared simply and quickly. The cookies turn out brittle and crunchy. If you prefer lighter, airier baked goods, then when kneading the dough add 0.25 tsp of baking powder together with the flour. If desired, you can add a couple of drops of citrus or vanilla flavoring.
