There are some cookies that never get out of season when it comes to Chinese New Year. One of them is the faithful peanut cookies that appear in many household year in year out. The other cookies that have the same good fortune is Butter Cookies.
Who can resist a sweet buttery cookie with its melt in the mouth texture. Butter Cookies are easy to fix up. All you need is flour, icing sugar and of course butter. As the key ingredient is butter, a good quality butter will make a difference. After my terrible encounter with Anchor Butter (in my previous post), I decided to use SCS butter for these Butter Cookies. And they tasted heavenly.
