Butter cookies (or butter biscuits), known as ''Brysslkex'', ''Sablés'', and ''Danish biscuits'', are unleavened cookies consisting of butter, flour, and sugar. They are often categorized as a "crisp cookie" due to their texture, caused in part because of the quantity of butter and sugar. It is generally necessary to chill the dough to enable proper manipulation and handling. Butter cookies at their most basic have no flavoring, but they are often flavored with vanilla, chocolate, and coconut, and/or topped with sugar crystals. They also come in a variety of shapes such as circles, squares, ovals, rings, and pretzel-like forms, and with a variety of appearances, including marbled, checkered or plain. Using piping bags, twisted shapes can be made. In some parts of the world such as European countries and North America these are often served around Christmas time. In Denmark, butter cookies in tin boxes are produced and sold there, and are also exported to other countries.〔(''Butter Cookies in Tins from Denmark'' ). U.S. International Trade Commission.
