Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 14 tablespoons white sugar
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon rose water
• 1.5 tablespoons dried rose petals

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in eggs and rose water. Stir in rose petals.

Step 2

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Mix into the dough. Cover and chill dough for at least 1 hour, or overnight.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 4

Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/3-inch thickness. Cut into shapes with a shaped cutter, or simply cut into rectangles or squares. Place cookies 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until light and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Cool completely before serving.
