Oatmeal cookies with butter and vanilla are the true embodiment of home comfort and warmth. Their roots go back to Russian cuisine, where simplicity and rich flavor have always been valued. The crispy edges and soft, tender center make these cookies indispensable for cozy evenings with a cup of tea. The aroma of vanilla adds a subtle sweetness that perfectly complements the rich taste of butter. Thanks to the oats, they have a light graininess that makes each bite special. Suitable for breakfast or a light snack, they also wonderfully complement evening gatherings. The sweetness of brown sugar is balanced by depth of flavor, and the quick preparation makes it a favorite recipe for busy hosts.
