Royal DanskDanish Cookies Tin, butter, 24 Ounce

These Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies are just as delicious as I remembered. My son was curious to try the “cookies from the tin that usually holds sewing thread” — and now he’s hooked! He loved the buttery taste and crisp texture, especially the pretzel-shaped ones.The tin brings back so many memories, and the cookies are still top quality: rich flavor, no preservatives, and just the right amount of sweetness. It’s a timeless treat that’s now a hit with the next generation too!

I found these cookies when I was searching Amazon for cookie tins to use when shipping some treats to a friend and was surprised to find a tin filled with cookies for around the same price as an empty tin, took a chance and ordered a few for my care package. The tins arrived in perfect condition except for one thing: they were filled with cookies and I needed empty tins. Solution? Try a few and see what they're like since I really only ordered them for the tins anyway, right?Wrong! I'll tell you what, these cookies are so delicious I'm embarrassed to admit that I've pretty much eaten them all instead of storing all the cookies in zip bags for when I want a sweet treat. Nope, didn't work out that way because I've been gobbling them up like a ravenous cookie monster. Not my best effort in restraint but it is what it is.The cookies are buttery, not overly sweet, light in taste and texture. These aren't chewy cookies by any means, wasn't expecting them to be, but they are perfect as an accompaniment to an afternoon tea or coffee break. All of the cookies have a similar taste with slight variations, some being more vanilla forward, others more crispy or tender, one with coconut (probably my favorite!) One thing I absolutely love about these cookies beside the taste is that all the ingredients are recognizable to me, no PhD in chemistry required!The calories are reasonable if you eat them in moderation (unlike me) with a serving size of 4 cookies totaling 170 calories or around 43 calories each. Another thing I love about them is that they're relatively low in sugar at 9 grams per serving which is less than many breakfast cereals on the shelves. On the down side they are high in saturated fat, 28% of the recommended daily intake according the the nutrition label that I just read, something I wish I knew before I gobbled up so many of them but I'll remember for future reference next time I'm tempted to overindulge.Long story longer: I came for the tin and fell in love with the cookie! If you like butter cookies, you'll probably enjoy these as much as I did.

My husband loves these cookies at Christmas time. This past Christmas we could not find any Royal Dansk brand cookies anywhere. There were other brands but their cookies are not as good. These are much better in quality and flavor. So I took a chance to see if Amazon had them and they did. This tin of cookies became part of his Christmas gifts. I keep the tins once empty for storing sewing notions.

80,000+ reviews, and not ONE reviewer here will admit the truth. So I'm just going to come out and say it. Because everyone is thinking it. And if you agree I'm right, I expect you to place your order as soon as you're done reading. So here's the truth.....Yes, these cookies are TASTY. They are rich, sweet, crispy. You can practically smell them just looking at a picture of them. But that's not the only reason you're ordering them, is it? It's not the only reason why we ordered them. So what is it?WE WANT THE TIN.I don't care where in America you were raised, you grew up seeing that classic blue and gold Royal Dansk tin. Your grandma, aunt, or maybe your mom kept her sewing supplies in one. Your dad or your uncle kept spare screws, nails, washers or other stuff in one that didn't quite have a place in a toolbox. Maybe you remember one with spare change. Maybe a place to toss a wallet, keys when we get home. Or maybe it was filled with the "junk" and various items that didn't fit in that ONE DRAWER in the kitchen that was overflowing with random stuff that didn't quite have it's own spot. Batteries, scissors, thread, some tape, that remote control that goes to something you don't even remember anymore (bonus points if you remember the remote missing its back).Don't even pretend you don't know about that "kitchen junk drawer."So when you order some Royal Dansk cookies, of course you get to munch on some tasty treats. But we could buy cookies in a regular container with a wrapper. Yet we want these. Because we want that tin. That tin that will last for years and years. One that will remind of our youth, of our family. Of a tradition that so many of us kept, but none of us ever talked about out loud for some reason.And you can have all that for less than five bucks.Seriously. A 12-ounce tin of these classic cookies is less than five dollars. And here's the crazy part. When the holidays roll around, stores actually sell EMPTY decorative tins for you to gift your homemade cookies or sweets in for the same price. If not more. That's five or six bucks for an empty tin. When you could be getting this classic tin packed with tasty, buttery cookies that take you back in time with every bite. It's almost like a $5 purchase can bring back million-dollar memories.So treat yourself. You've got five bucks. Why put it off, or make excuses? Add a 12 ounce tin of these cookies to your shopping cart. Then check out. Depending on where you live, you'll get it tomorrow, or quite possibly today. Won't even have to waste gas driving to the store. And when you finish off that last delicious cookie, put the tin to good use. Keep the tradition going, starting right now.

I’ve ordered these butter cookies about 9 or 10 times now—which, yes, is a cry for help, but also a compliment. They always arrive in about two days, which is amazing because that gives me just enough time to pretend I won’t devour the whole tin in one sitting. (Spoiler: I do.)The cookies are always fresh, which is a miracle when you’re ordering food online and half-expecting a box of crumbs and sadness. Not here. These little golden bites of joy show up like they just left the bakery, all crisp and buttery and ready to ruin your willpower.Thanks to whoever is behind these magical deliveries. I will definitely be ordering again… probably tomorrow. Or later today. Don’t judge me.
