I couldn’t help myself – I saw them on the great Ezra Pound Cake blog and had to make them. Buttermilk cookies, lovely little cakey bits, perfect with milk or tea. See? Don’t you want to make them now? Go to her blog for the recipe – it’s in the link above.
So many variations – a bit of orange in the cookie and glaze; more lemon, maybe lime; blueberries perhaps. Poppyseeds would be good. But start with them plain and simple like this, because they’re really wonderful.


You’re so right about all the variations! And that gives me a convenient excuse to make another batch.
Love the glaze dripping in these photos. Mmmmmm.
Be still my beating heart. So beautiful and yummy sounding.
Yum!
