Pipe the dough using a star nozzle. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes. Frequently Asked Questions Can I Use Salted Butter? Straight after baking, be careful not to break them as they can be very fragile at this point. They will set as they cool. Butter - Use a good quality, unsalted butter. To stay as close to the original recipe as possible, I'm using Lurpak (Danish butter), which is higher in fat content, due to the additional churning. Salted butter will also work, just skip any extra salt from the ingredients. Powdered sugar- The light texture of the powdered sugar makes it easier to blend into the rest of the mixture than granulated sugar. For the best results, sift the powdered sugarbefore adding it to the recipe to eliminate any lumps. Refer to my sugar guidefor the different types of sugar and how to use them in baking. Large piping nozzle - It's best to use the large, wide piping nozzle to pipe the cookie dough into the iconic ring shape or rosettes. This type of the nozzle will also create the signature ridges on the cookie rings, which will trap the crunchy sugar topping. Use an open star tip, like Wilton 6B, Wilton 8B or Ateco 868. The universal Wilton 1M will also work, but you may have to add more milk to the cookie dough, if using it (because it is a narrower nozzle, it will be harder to pipe the dough through it).

For rich, creamy and milky flavors, I strongly recommend using heavy whipping cream. You may use regular whipping cream. Flour alternatives- Try this recipe using a small amount of almond flour for a hint of sweet almond flavor. You can also use cake flour. Or why not try these Self Rising Flour Biscuits for a savory version? See my flour guideto learn more about the different types of flour and how to use them in baking. 🎓 Expert tips Mejia, Paula (27 March 2018). "What's in Your Royal Dansk Cookie Tin?". Atlas Obscura.

If you want to get a little fancy, go to the nearest dollar store like Dollar General and buy the round tins they have, usually around Christmas time, but they may have them year-round. Then place cupcake paper cups on the bottom, and add a homemade Danish butter cookie to each paper cup. Add a round piece of parchment paper or wax paper on top, then add another layer. A fun gift to give to your neighbors, friends, and family. You will need an electric hand mixerto whip together wet ingredients with the powdered sugar and a rubber spatulato gently fold in the dry ingredients. Do not use a stand mixer to add in the salt, flour, or milk, as it will overmix the ingredients and result in a dough that is too loose. Use a rubber spatulato gently fold together the ingredients just until combined.

Next mix in the vanilla extract. Add the flour to a sifter along with the salt or just add them to a separate bowl and give them a good mix with a whisk. Form the dough into a long loaf which makes it easier to put in the piping bag. Step 4: Pipe the cookie shapes and bake them Make sure to leave enough space between each cookie on the baking sheet, as they will puff up as they bake. TIP: If you forget to set your butter out to soften, you can put it in the microwave on defrost mode for 20 or 30 seconds to soften it up. Always use room temperature butter and milk to better blend into the batter. Always sift the dry ingredients first to eliminate any lumps.Add the cookie dough to a piping bag with a large tip. I typically use the Wilton 1M or the Ateco 847. No fancy ingredients are required- This Danish butter cookie recipe is made with only six ingredients, many of which are likely already in your pantry.

Then you can pipe your circle design on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. If you don’t want to use a piping bag, take a small amount of dough and roll it into a ball. Then press it flat with your palm. Use a fork and press it around. That is one design you can do. The butter cookie recipe is made with only few, very simple and basic ingredients and it's great to prepare in advance. You can dip them in some melted chocolate, and decorate with some festive sprinkles, but they are just as delicious plain, or with a little sprinkle of sugar on top.

Vanilla extract – This optional ingredient really enhances the flavor. I say “optional” but I never leave it out. They should be light, firm, and crunchy. Top with powdered sugar if you like, or you can even dip half of it in chocolate. Pipe 5cm / 2-inch circles onto the baking sheets. Leave enough room between each cookie to give them room to puff up and spread. The primary flavors in this cookie are butter and vanilla, so you’ll want to use good quality ingredients!
