These egg yolk only butter cookies are a great solution to use up some of your leftover egg yolks from other cooking!
A few weeks ago, I made sweet and sour chicken. After making that dish, I had two egg yolks left over. So I decided to bake some cookies with them.
But it only gave me 10 cookies. So, today I increased all the ingredients 2 times more to get 2 times more cookies. At the end, I only got 15 cookies (instead of 20). Lol.
Nonetheless, these butter cookies are super easy, simple and delicious to make. They are also crispy!
Hope you try them soon!
