Kaastengel / indonesian kue keju (cheese cookies) / cheese stick
Cookies
Being occupied by Holland for 350 years, Indonesian cooking has many Dutch influences, with hagelslag/chocolate sprinkles, cheese, milk, butter, and sometimes rum. Butter and cheese are often advertised in TV as healthy and nutritious! <br />This crunchy cookie is salty and savory from the Gouda cheese, with a hint of sweetness that still makes it an anytime cookies. This cookie is one of the musts in the majority of Indonesian houses during festivities, such as Ied-Fitr, Christmas, and Chinese New Year. <br />While there are many variations, this recipe has been given to me by my mom after many trial and error to make it fit our taste perfectly. The recipe makes many cookies because it is normally shared between houses, but it can be halved/quartered or be kept in fridge after being baked for +6 months with no problem. <br />PS: If you are lazy, all cheese can be put in the batter and no need to be put on top of the cookies.
