Day 3 of Cookiemas 2025 is Vaniljekranse which is also known as Danish butter cookies. Just like the ones you get in the tins!

I followed the recipe from Nordic Food & Living so be sure to check out the recipe on their site! The only difference is I used a vanilla bean paste I had on hand instead of an actual vanilla pod.

These came out super tasty and very close to the cookies in the tins. I got really tired from piping the dough so be prepared for that!

Step-by-step Photos

Nordic Food & Living has some great progress photos but I screenshotted some from my video in case you want a little preview.

First, I creamed together the butter and sugar and then added the vanilla and egg.

I added the dry ingredients and mixed until everything was incorporated.

I filled the piping bag and piped the dough onto a pan and then baked in the oven

This is what the cookies look like after baking!
