Swedish Drömmar Cookies
Servings: 15 -20 cookies
Ingredients
- 50g (3½ tbsp) butter
- 130g sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar (see note 1)
- 60ml (4 tbsp) vegetable oil
- 110g (½ cup) spelt flour (see note 2)
- ½ tsp hjorthornssalt (see note 3)
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 150°C (300ºF).
- Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
- Beat the butter, sugar and vanilla until it is smooth and fluffy.
- Add the oil a little at a time, just until incorporated.
- Mix the hjorthornssalt with a little of the flour and add to the oil/butter mixture.
- Add the remaining flour and mix well.
- Divide the dough into around 15-20 small pieces of similar size/weight.
- Roll them into balls and place on the baking tray with a little space in between them.
- Bake for around 15-20 minutes, just until the edges are starting to brown a little. The cookies will be very pale, but that's how they are supposed to look.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for about 15 minutes before moving to a wire rack. Do this with great care, as the cookies will be very delicate.
Notes
I have converted grams to cups/ounces/tablespoons using online converters. While I have no reason to believe they are inaccurate, please be aware that I have not tested this recipe with imperial measurements.
- Traditional drömmar are made with vanilla sugar. You can use vanilla extract in its place (but it might alter the cookies slightly).
- You can use all-purpose (plain) flour. Just use the same amount as mentioned.
- Please read for more information.
