Seaweed Cookies/海苔饼干/海苔クッキー [CNY Bakes 2011 - Part III]

Cookies_Nori_1

Seaweed (nori - のり) cookies for my little boy, who is a seaweed lover. This cookie is more on the savoury side to bring out the taste of seaweed. Mayonnaise adds extra flavour to it, but it is optional. Well, you have my permission to adjust the amount of sugar and add any spices to create your very own taste.
