Although it is not December yet, but a new recipe on the blog is added only once every two weeks, why not start already with ideas for Christmas baking. I bet some of you are already thinking about the right cookies for the Christmas table. And you can easily bake “not filled cookies” in advance and they will be still good until Christmas. Well, if you have some left until then and you wouldn´t have to bake another batch. When I think about Viennese biscuits I think about Christmas as well, as I usually make them only on Christmas. They are simple and quick to make, tasty and you can eat them just like that or like a sandwich with jam.
Coconut Viennese Biscuits are perfect for the Christmas table. The subtle coconut taste is a nice combination with the buttery taste of biscuits. Biscuits crunch and melt nicely on your tongue. This definitely isn´t dense or dry crumbly biscuit dough. Biscuits are soft as much as they should be and they also have a delicate taste. They are certainly a winner for me and one of my favorite Viennese Biscuits. Since it is a large batch, I am sure there will be some biscuits left until Christmas, even if, as I always do, you would take one every single time you pass them. After all, they are small, just two, three bites and there is no biscuit left.

Ivi, kde si kúpila ten krásny tanier? :O
Z bazáru v PO, budova PKO. Len to bolo už dávno, asi dva roky dozadu a mali iba jeden :/
Krásny je, no škoda, snáď sa nejaký podobný ku mne raz dostane:)
Ďakujem, verím, že áno, v bazároch je podobných určite veľa 🙂
