Description

Country-style cookies are a type of traditional cookie characterized by their rustic, crunchy texture and a slightly sweet, buttery flavor. These cookies are typically made with basic ingredients such as flour, sugar, butter, and sometimes milk or eggs, which give them a firm yet pleasant consistency. They are commonly used in homemade recipes and are ideal to accompany hot beverages like coffee or tea.

The origin of country-style cookies dates back to traditional recipes from rural areas, where cooking focused on simple and accessible ingredients, aiming to prepare products that would last longer. This tradition remains alive in many Hispanic regions that value authentic flavors and artisanal preparation.

Regarding their properties, these cookies mainly provide carbohydrates and fats from butter, offering a quick source of energy. Depending on the recipe, they may also contain fiber if whole grain flours or additional ingredients like oats or nuts are incorporated.

In Hispanic America, country-style cookies may have different names depending on the country and region, although some common synonyms include:

  • Homemade cookies
  • Rustic cookies
  • Farm cookies
  • Artisanal cookies

These alternatives reflect the idea of a simple, traditional preparation made with natural ingredients, perfect for accompanying desserts or snacks in cooking recipes.
