One my favorite things to bake is the Lengua de Gato (Thin Butter Cookie), which my nephew loves to munch using his first two front teeth. :)
LENGUA DE GATO
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1-1/8 cup flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp calamansi or lemon extract
Procedure:
1. Cream butter and sugar in a bowl. Continue mixing until smooth in texture.
2. Add the egg, vanilla extract and calamansi or lemon extract in the butter-sugar mixture.
3. Gradually add the flour in the mixture.
4. Preheat oven at 356F (180C).
5. Spoon or pipe the mixture in a greased pan. They must be spaced an inch apart.
6. Bake the cookies for 3-5 minutes or until their edges turn to light brown.
