Finish Lace Cookies
Delicate, crisp, and irresistibly buttery, Finnish Lace Cookies are a classic treat that combines elegance and simplicity in every bite. These wafer-thin cookies are made with a combination of all-purpose flour and almond flour, giving them a subtly nutty flavor and an ultra-light texture. A touch of vanilla extract and a hint of salt balance out the sweetness, while their unique lacy appearance makes them as stunning as they are delicious. Perfectly golden and slightly caramelized, these cookies bake in just 8 minutes and require minimal effort, making them a quick yet impressive choice for any occasion. Serve them as a tea-time snack, alongside a scoop of ice cream, or enjoy them straight from the jar—they’ll stay crisp for up to a week in an airtight container!

Ingredients
- 60 grams Butter
- 75 grams Granulated sugar
- 15 milliliters Light corn syrup
- 30 grams All-purpose flour
- 40 grams Almond flour
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 milliliters Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the granulated sugar and light corn syrup until combined.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and add the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract to the mixture and stir to combine. The batter will be thick and glossy.
Step 5
Using a teaspoon, scoop small amounts of batter (about 1/2 teaspoon) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 7-8 cm (3 inches) between each to allow for spreading.
Step 6
Bake cookies for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown and lacy in texture. Keep a close eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Step 7
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 2-3 minutes until they firm up slightly.
Step 8
Carefully transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will harden as they cool, achieving their delicate, crispy texture.
Step 9
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Enjoy your Finnish Lace Cookies!
