Crunchy butter cookies from Britany
The “galettes sablées bretonnes” are typical french butter cookies made from butter, flour, sugar and eggs. The traditional shape is round and the tops of the cookies are usually brushed with the egg yolk, giving them a shiny and golden appearance. “Sablée” means sand in French, and refers to the sandy like texture of the biscuits. This is really a very easy to make recipe, and the result tastes very good.
