A plain and delicious Turkish cookie that melts the moment it hits your mouth. Made with few ingredients, this classic recipe is one of the most practical and beloved treats for teatime.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Beat the butter and sugar

5 min

Beat the softened butter with powdered sugar until creamy and pale in color.

2

Knead the dough

8 min

Add the starch and mix, then add the flour little by little until you get a soft, non-sticky dough. Caution: don't overknead the dough; mix just enough for it to come together.

3

Shape

7 min

Take walnut-sized pieces of the dough, roll into balls, press down lightly, and arrange spaced apart on a baking-paper-lined tray.

4

Bake

18 min

Bake in an oven preheated to 170 degrees for about eighteen minutes, until the bottoms take on a light color. Caution: the tops should not brown much; they need to stay white.

5

Coat with powdered sugar

5 min

Once the cookies have cooled enough to hold together, coat them in powdered sugar and serve. They stay fresh for a week in an airtight container.

Reminder

Important: The melt-in-the-mouth texture of un kurabiyesi (shortbread cookies) comes from the generous starch and butter; don't overknead the dough, or it will toughen. Contains gluten (flour) and dairy (butter). The cookies are soft straight out of the oven and firm up into their crumbly texture as they cool.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Don't take the cookies off the tray while hot; they're still fragile and will break apart. Remove them with a spatula once they've cooled and firmed up.
