Danish Butter Cookies

I have never bought a container of Danish Butter cookies as large as you get. The small tin can of them will last us as for awhile.

Those are my favorite cookies. When I used to work in mortgage loans, years and years ago, we would usually get a box or so of these either from the realtors or the mortgage originators. Wow, did we eat good around the holidays! Those were the days. LOL I will usually by the smaller tins of them for myself, or sometimes I will get lucky and a neighbor or a friend will remember me and get me a tin of them. In my opinion it is one of the best gifts that you can get anybody. Hey, maybe I'll do that this year. Instead of trying to pick out individual gifts for everyone, maybe I'll just buy one of the great big tins for the whole family. Thanks for the idea Grandpa Bob! Have a great day here on myLot!

Not that large... I usually only get the 1 pound tins. But, I do have some of the large tins I've picked up from someone's recycling bin. They make great storage. I use a tall one to hold my sugar, and one of the flatter ones to hold food processor blades.

Where do you buy them? I haven't ever noticed them on a store shelf...I might get some after your discription!

Those are delicious! But I much prefer scotch shortbread made with butter, flour and powdered sugar. It's an old, old recipe that I've lost and hope to find again. I do like the Danish butter cookies, though, as well as the wedding cookies that are balls of nuts and sweet stuff. Darn you! I'm due to begin a new food plan tomorrow and you're making me want to go out and buy cookies!!

grandpa Bob You have got my mouth watering and wanting to rush out and get those Danish Cookies. Yes sir they are my favorites too. I usually get a can or two every year around Thanksgiving. But since you have started this discussion I will out tomorrow looking for them..LOL..Keep smiling my friend..

I used to buy these delicious cookies, although not in such large containers. Since I am a diabetic now, I can no longer indulge in them. However, I envy you for all your apples and apple dishes. Now I eat unsweetened apple sauce, at leat not sweetened with sugar but with Splenda or Stevia. We had Thanksgiving this past weekend in Canada. My daughter-in-law brought a sugar free apple pie which was delicious. You could not tell the difference. Myself, I baked a sugar free low cal pumpkin pie made with liquid eggwhite from a carton, Splenda and evaporated skim milk. I have to get used to this way of baking because it really did not turn out well. It even looked odd. Oh, well!

I have in the past but not in a few yrs....I do love them though and so do my kids and the hubby..maybe I'll buy some this yr....I actully need to get started on the seasonal baking over the next couple weeks...

I've heard of butter cookies, but not danish butter cookies. Is there a distinction?

I have bought those cookies before during the holiday season also. I have bought them for the tin only before also. I just baked us some peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies too yesterday.

we had a wedding this past weekend and i wanted to get the happy couple some christmas ornaments but try as i might, hardly any stores had christmas stuff out except michaels (the craft store). the stores usually wait til after canadian thanksgiving (which we just celebrated this past weekend) before christmas stuff comes out.

Hi Grandpa Bob. I loved these cookies when I was growing up! I especially like the round ones with the holes in the middle. I know that they're all pretty much the same, but for some reason I liked them more than the others. Still do. But now whenever I get them I try to save some for my husband as these are his favorite out of them too. Happy mylotting!

I love when the christmas sugar cookies come out, the ones in the tub and have green and red sprinkles on them and they are shaped like wreathes!!! I havent had some in a year and the minute I do see them I HAVE to buy them!!! funny you are getting sick of the Apples stuff already and my son is going on a feild trip next week with his school to an Apple orchard and we are then going to have tons of apples here at home then. Enjoy your cookies and happy mylotting!!

Hi webeishere, I love to eat biscuits especially ButterCookies. I can simply finish up a tin of butter cookies within a week time. It is the best titbits while watching television. I always wish I will have time to bake some butter cookies for my family.

I love thoses kinds of cookies too, although I have never bought that big of a container of them. Before we know it Christmas will be here. Happy Holidays.

That used to be my son's favorite cookie.I have bought them for him before. I will eat up any open cookie container that I find. Love them with coffee.

Oh, I love those cookies. My whole family like them. I haven't seen any out in any of our stores yet but I'm sure they will be out soon. And of course I will have to buy some when I see them. Sometimes I buy the little containers of them and give some out as christmas gifts.

I buy them every year also. I love Danish butter cookies.I buy mine at sams club they come in a large container there. And I eat most of them myself, unless the grandkids come over, they like them too.

Thanks a lot. Now I have drool running down my shirt. Grandpa Bob, you are so mean! I have been so good losing weight and eating healthy and now you get me thinking about those delicious things. I love those things. If I bought the large container I would have to eat one and mail the rest to you.

yeah, I've bought them, but I really only like the softer ones - I'm such a woose...
