Let's Bake (烤) Sugar Cookies
Nobody is actually sure who created the very first cookie. But the first cookie may have been a mistake.
Many cooking experts believe that a long time ago cooks who wanted to test the temperature of their ovens
would bake a little bit to find out if the oven was hot enough to bake an entire cake. These test cakes were
called keokje, which means "little cake" in the language used in the Netherlands. People from the Netherlands
brought the recipe to the United States. The word "cookie" may have come from their word keokje.
Cookies are also very popular in England, but the English call them "biscuits", as do Australians. Almost
every country has a word for cookie. In Spain, they are called galletas, and in Italy, cookies are called biscotti.
Americans are not the only people who enjoy cookies.
