The addition of vanilla sugar gives the cookies a subtle aroma that fills the home with coziness. This treat pairs perfectly with a cup of strong black tea or coffee, enhancing their rich taste. The ease of preparation makes these cookies accessible even for culinary beginners, and their versatility allows enjoyment both on weekdays and at festive gatherings.
