These were a Lebaran staple growing up. I more often remembered them containing actual cookies, but my mom grew up opening them only to find needles and string XD
Not that one, but omg, those cookies in a tin bring back memories! I remember it was always so much fun when my dad would come back from a work trip and he’d have a tin of cookies or chocolate with him. The joy when you find out it has two layers!
The ones I found are these Italian sugar cookies? I guess? Found them in the imported section at the grocery store. They get a small batch of imported things and it changes all the time which is fun, but it also means that if you think something looks good, you better buy it now
OMG yes! I love how these cookies are a universal experience and yes yes yes to the double layers! It’s like oh, surprise, there’s more treats and you still have some sugary gratification left
They do look really cute! and they have sprinkles! I can’t remember the last time I’ve eaten something with sprinkles on them, it’s been a while
Speaking of sugar cookies, in Indonesia we have a type of sugar cookie we call putri salju (“snow princess” in English). I don’t remember when I first had them but I’ve liked them since!
Because they’re white and sweet, I used to call my now-ex a sugar cookie, since he was also white and sweet :3 among other cutesy nicknames. The complete opposite to the deranged nicknames he called me I’d call him ice cube, slushie, and sugar cookie, and he’d call me his little psycho or serial killer
Sounds fun but also sounds like a recipe for heartbreak like getting something really good only for it to not be available and having to resort to buying it online or something, which is often more expensive
A common snack we had growing up was basically sliced bread slathered with margarine and sprinkles. They didn’t have to be rainbow sprinkles; they could be any kind of sprinkles! And if you toast them till the sprinkles melt, you get roti bakar—Indonesian sweet toast some people like to add grated cheese to theirs too.
