Cookies "Petticoat tails"

Description

The tails of the skirt. The origin of the strange name of this cookie is variously explained: from the French "Petit guatay", which means "small cakes", but the tune was altered by the Scots in "petticoat tails"; the form of biscuits, which resembles a skirt with gussets of the time of Queen Elizabeth; the invention of the pastry chef, who decided after years of torment from the broken ends smooth triangular cookies to make it smooth-wavy.
