Lengua de gato are thin, snappy, Filipino butter cookies that are perfect for snacking. Pair with a cup of coffee for the ultimate treat!
Remember to pipe these cookies as thinly as possible by applying light, even pressure on the piping bag. We used a simple piping bag and snipped the corner to make 1-inch wide cookies. Once they go into the oven, keep an eye on them because they bake pretty quickly, too. Happy baking!
