Kentucky Butter Cake Cookies are a delightful twist on the traditional Kentucky Butter Cake, a staple in the South known for its moist texture and rich buttery flavor. These cookies capture the essence of the beloved cake but in a form that’s perfect for sharing and snacking. Ideal for family gatherings, potlucks, or a simple afternoon treat, these cookies bring a touch of Southern charm to any table.
