Country kokurkki in brine caught my attention and I’m glad I prepared them. I just had the brine, I almost didn’t calculate the sugar (I could have put in more). The dough turned out soft and easy to work with. I made all the cookies the same shape. There were 3 baking sheets. When I told my son that these cookies were called kokurki, he replied that it was a funny name. We ate them with cherry jam, and even without it they disappeared well. The recipe is good, thanks to the author!

Can the brine be replaced with water?)
