Bondkakor is a traditional cookie whose name translates to "farmer's cookies". These cookies typically contain flour, sugar, butter, syrup (often golden syrup), and baking soda. Many recipes also include chopped or sliced almonds for added texture and flavor.

Bondkakor are sweet with a slight chewiness, and the addition of almonds gives them a pleasant crunch. The golden syrup provides a caramel-like undertone to the cookie's flavor. They are usually round, flat cookies, often with a piece of almond adorning the top.

Like many Swedish cookies, bondkakor can be enjoyed year-round but are often associated with special occasions or the traditional Swedish coffee break, known as fika.
