They also make a simple yet elegant addition to a dessert platter or can be crumbled as a topping for ice cream or yogurt.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any remaining cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposing them to moisture or direct sunlight, which can make the wafers soggy and affect their flavor. Properly stored, they will retain their delicate texture for several days.
