Why We Love It!
Lace cookies are crisp thin cookies that resemble crocheted lace after they have been baked. Different European countries use slightly different ingredients such as oats or chopped almonds. Here’s why they’re one of our favorite holiday cookie recipes:
Easy. These tasty classics use only a few ingredients and come together so quickly! Flavorful. They all have a toffee-like flavor that almost melts in your mouth. Great for parties and gifting. These cookies are great for holiday get togethers, like Christmas parties, but also so pretty wrapped up on a pretty cookie plate!
So if you love Toffee and cookies you best give these a try!
Ingredients

If you use salted butter, reduce the amount of added salt. white sugar egg beaten quick cooking oats – Avoid instant oats as the cookies may be too fragile and rolled oats as the flakes will be too large. all-purpose flour vanilla extract – Substitute the vanilla for almond extract. You can also reduce the amount of vanilla and add a bit of orange extract salt baking powder
How to Make Lace Cookies
Storing Info
Store the batter covered and stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Allow time for it to come to room temperature before baking. STORE. Place cooled cookies in a protective airtight container. Use wax or parchment paper to separate layers of cookies so they don’t stick together. When properly stored cookies should last for 5-7 days. FREEZE for up to 3 months. Since they are quite delicate I recommend placing them in a freezer Ziploc and then into a sturdy protective container.
