These Marjoram Butter Cookies are buttery and crispy and oh so simple, with hints of marjoram.

They had to be protected in order for me to snag some pictures. My kids were hovering like they were cookie monsters. Did I tell them that Marjoram was an ingredient? No! They don’t even know what Marjoram is, nor did they seem to care. They scarfed these Marjoram Butter Cookies down in no time.
