MANILA, Philippines — Baking is a precise science. Unlike cooking savory food, which has recipes that are mere guides and adjustments in taste, texture and color can be made later in the process, baking requires strict adherence to the recipe on hand.
This is why some people are discouraged from baking. With one ingredient lacking, you are bound to fail, and some recipes require a lot of ingredients. But what if you have a simple recipe to follow, and it only needs three ingredients to come together?
This three-ingredient Butter Cookies recipe from Home Foodie and San Miguel Pure Foods Culinary Center just might be what you need to get started on baking.
3-ingredient Butter Cookies

3/4 cup Magnolia Gold Butter Salted
1/2 cup (100 grams) sugar
