What they are
Matss "vecmāmiņas cepumi" — grandmother’s biscuits — are the small, lightly sweet, butter-rich cookies that live in a tin on the kitchen counter in Latvian homes. This version is studded with chopped peanuts, which give a soft toast and a little salty pop against the buttery dough.
Hand them around with strong black tea or coffee, give a few to a child after school, or layer them with sour cream and condensed milk for a quick no-bake fridge cake.
Ingredients
Wheat flour, sugar, vegetable fat (palm, sunflower), peanuts, egg, glucose syrup, sweetened condensed milk, raising agents (E500, E503), salt, natural flavouring.
