Schackrutor

Schackrutor is a popular Swedish cookie that resembles a checkerboard or chessboard. These are buttery, shortbread-like cookies made by combining two different colored doughs, usually vanilla and chocolate, to create a distinctive checkered appearance. Making schackrutor involves rolling out each dough into a square or rectangular shape, stacking them, and then slicing the stacked dough into smaller squares or rectangles. These are then baked until they are lightly golden and enjoyed with some tea or coffee.
