This is my first attempt to bake cookies and I started with basic sugar and butter cookies I made a shape of square but after baking they endup with round I have seen lot of wonderfull and yummy cookies baked by fellow bloggers ,inspired by them and started baking and the final result of my cookies are OKEY
(but not so perfect) and i have taken this recipe from Asha ji's "Foodies hope "
1 cup all purpose flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp soda, 1/4 tsp salt ,1/2 cup soft butter,1/3 cup sugar ( I used sugar powder) ,1/2 tsp vanilla extract ,1/2 cup chopped cashews ,sugar for sprinkle
Method:
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy , shift all the above dry ingredients
Add the dry ingredients in batches to the creamed butter and sugar mixture
Make a soft dough, divide in to equal parts ,shape as u like ,sprinkle with sugar and cashews and refrigerate for 1/2 hour
Preheat oven to 350 and bake for 12 to 15 min
cool and done .

ReplyDeleteThe butter/ fat in cookies make them turn out round. I'm sure they tasted nice. Don'y worry, most of us start out making mistakes.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the first pic. I thought that it was a milk sweet.. I think this type of cookie was also my first when I tried back home... Love them.
ReplyDeleteWhatever the shape is.... They always taste gr8!
ReplyDeleteNice one Sagari, don't worry about the cookies loosing shape, they always do. Since the butter to flour ratio is high in this cookie, the cookie dough will spread when you bake it. But it is an awesome dough to make cutout shapes. Tastes great no matter what the shape is. Happy holidays.
ReplyDeleteI love those square cookies, looks great to me!:)
ReplyDeleteTry the Vanilla butter cookies I posted today, can't go wrong.Got to chill the dough for 1/2 an hour.
