Dutch Butter Cake (Boterkoek) | Recipe

Today I’m going to share one of our favourite Dutch cookie recipe that can be done right before starting some couch time with your loved ones, aka Dutch Butter cake (Boterkoek).

Heard a lot of people telling me boys can be better cooks if they try, I’m not here to agree or disagree, but I do think if they put a bit of effort in the kitchen, the chance to make something eatable is pretty high. And in today’s case, yum!

One benefit of marrying into another culture, is getting a natural habit of getting your hands on the different types of food in your daily life. And today I’m going to share one of our favourite Dutch cookie recipe that can be done right before starting some couch time with your loved ones, aka Dutch Butter Biscuit (Boterkoek).

We’re not big butter consumers, however, once you’ve seen the attractive price tag of butter in Costco, you can’t help falling into the trap and getting a bucket load of it. Hence, unpacked butter in the fridge which will expire in 4 days can happen in our household. As a result, butter cookie popped out in the head as one of the best options to consume the overloaded butter.
