These are a breeze to make and are so crispy. I am not fond of chewy cookies and very fond of crispy ones. Thus this cookie satisfies me to the end of satisfaction. The chocolate chips added on some of the cookies are by my daughter.
Makes : 40 cookies
Preparation time - 15 minutes
Cooking time - 12-15 minutes
Ingredients:
Butter - 1/2 cup ~120 grams (at room temperature)
Sugar - 1/2 cup (if you like cookie to be more sweet, add some more sugar. This was sweet enough for me)
Maida / All purpose flour - 1 1/2 cups
Egg - 1 (at room temperature)
Vanilla essence - 1 tsp
Baking soda - 1 tsp
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
- Sift flour baking soda and baking powder together.
- In a mixer or by hand, cream butter and sugar together. Add egg and beat till it is uniformly creamy.
- Add the vanilla essence to the mixture. Fold this mixture over the sifted flour gently and combine. Knead with hands if needed, but gently to form a dough.
- Pinch small balls from the dough, place them in the centre of your palm and press with the other palm gently to form a cookie. This recipe yielded roughly 42 cookies for me. You can roll out the dough and use cookie cutters too.
- Place the cookies on a cookie sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees C for 12-15 minutes. The first batch took 15 minutes and the second only 12 minutes. Keep an eye on them after 10 minutes, so that they do not brown.
- Let them cool, then place in airtight containers.
