Tips for making Lavender Butter Cookies

You can store the dough in the freezer. Just defrost before baking.
Adding the lavender petals to the dough is totally at your own discretion. Some people like to add a lot of petals, while others might prefer just adding 4 teaspoons. I think you’ll find the right amount somewhere between 5 and 7 teaspoons (depending on taste).
Always make sure you use the petals of lavender plants that are healthy and haven’t been sprayed with any insecticide or other chemicals.
Store the cookies in an airtight container.
