growing and using lavender

:: lavender cookies ::

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups flour

  • In a separate bowl make the lavender sugar by adding:
    1 cup dried lavender buds
    1 cup course sugar
    Mix thoroughly. Continue to mix the sugar as you use it because it can separate.


    Instructions: Cream sugar and butter. Gradually add salt and flour. Mix well. Chill the dough for 1-2 hours. Form the dough into little 1 inch balls. Roll them into the lavender sugar. Press each ball with your thumb. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the balls on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Cool on racks. Recipe makes approximately three dozen cookies.
