A very Victorian recipe! Some people are put off by the notion of herb cookies, but you'll be pleasantly surprised. The flavor improves with age (best 2 days after), keeping for about a week.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups unsalted butter
- 0.67 cups white sugar
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons white sugar for decoration
Instructions
-
1
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and 2/3 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the flour salt and rosemary until well blended. The dough will be somewhat soft. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
-
2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees F). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
-
3
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into rectangles 1 1/2x2 inches in size. Place cookies 1 inch apart on the lined cookie sheets. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the tops.

Bake for 8 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden at the edges. Cool on wire racks, and store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Air-Fried Cinnamon and Sugar Doughnuts
I love hot cinnamon doughnuts, but don't like or have all the oil to make the recipes. This version uses an air fryer. By using less oil, I can use tastier oil, thus my choice is butter. Serve and eat hot. Like traditional doughnuts they are much better hot than cold.
