Welsh Cookies
Welsh Cookies, also known as Welsh Cakes or Bakestones, are a traditional Welsh treat. They are unique in that they are cooked on a griddle or frying pan rather than baked in an oven. This gives them a slightly crispy exterior and a soft, cake-like interior. It makes the most of seasonal ingredients and flavors. It is also awesome for gift giving and so delicious filled with currants.
