Ruiskatut (Rye Cookies)

Ruiskatut are thin and crunchy Estonian rye cookies. They are eaten on their own or used as the base for cream cheese or lingonberry preserves. These cookies are often served with cocktails in Estonia. Easy to make, ruiskatut have a complex, slightly bitter flavor from the rye flour that is traditionally used, but the rustic flavor is tempered by the sweetness of light brown sugar.
