Celsius to Fahrenheit Oven Temperature Conversion

Hókifli – Hungarian Snow Crescents
This cookie is a typical Hungarian festive cookie, probably because it is quite simple to make and there are normally no leftovers 😀 I made these (first of all for us and secondly) for my colleagues as a small treat before Christmas (for Mikulás), it was a big hit!
