i didnt try cookies..but this recipe gives me inspiration to try it..thx sagari!
Excellent for the first time Sagari, from now on it will be easy sailing.. lovely pics :)
They look wonderful..and there a lot of us who are still lurking around being newbies at baking..
Hey it looks delicious. For a first time cookie baker a big thump up
The 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.
Looking 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.
Whatever the shape is.... They always taste gr8!
Nice 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.
I love those square cookies, looks great to me!:)
Try the Vanilla butter cookies I posted today, can't go wrong.Got to chill the dough for 1/2 an hour.
cute cookies sagari!
