Soft Vanilla Butter Cookies

Healthy food is good for the body, but just like love (which is also a good thing); it is sadly, usually not enough. Many were born with a sweet tooth or at least it seems so as main meals just don’t ‘fill’ good if not topped with something sugary – chocolates, sweets, biscuits, wafers, juice or fruits! If it is fruits for you, you have pretty good taste (if you know what I mean) but if it is not, don’t sweat it, just eat it! Make your own hot soft vanilla butter cookies.
