Now divide the dough into 4 equal parts. To one of them I am adding cocoa powder, to one am adding Saunf, to one I am adding dry fruits and left another one plane..

This is the BEST butter cookies recipe you'll find online! They are extremely buttery, crumbly and practically melt in the mouth. They are similar to Danish butter cookies and perfect for any holidays: Christmas, New Year, Chinese New Year, Valentine's Day, or any day of the year! My inspiration for these cookies came from this recipe by Melissa Clark in the New York Times. I was initially puzzled by the title, Cultured Butter Cookies, and discovered in the entertaining comment thread that I wasn't alone.
