Thanks! Natalie Prodan <prodan@alltel.net> wrote: No Garabije does not translate into the meaning cookie. It's just telling you a "type" of cookie. Kind of like saying, peanut butter cookie verses sugar cookie. Here are the most common words for cookie by croatians. The other nationalities within Yugoslavia and croatia may have some differences in these words so keep that in mind. cookie --> biskvit cookie (exact translation: dried pastry) --> suhi kolači cookie --> kolačić cookie --> cookie (my relatives overseas just say "cookie" LOL!) fortune cookie --> kolačić sudbine On Dec 6, 2006, at 9:27 AM, Barbara Reincke wrote: I searched the internet earlier this year for the same thing. I found the following recipe, which I made for Thanksgiving. They taste almost like those Girl Scout shortbread cookies. Anyone know what Garabije means? I'm guessing cookie! CROATIAN GARABIJE 5 cups sifted flour 2 cups sugar 1 cup butter 1 cup shortening 6 egg yolks 2 tablespoons sour cream 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla Make as for a pie crust; roll out and cut with cookie cutter or cookie press. Bake 12 to 15 mintues at 350 F. I did not frost them or anything and used about a 2" round cookie cutter. The above yielded about 10 dozen cookies! Good luck!

I need to move on to a different recipe. Broaden my horizons a little. Any idea's?
