Expert Tips

• Do not overbake, the cookies will become hard.The cookies should be golden brown.
• Refrigeration is a must else you cannot roll them.
• These cookies spread out so arrange them accordingly leaving enough space between each cookie.
• I used cane sugar.
• If you don’t have electric hand mixer, you can use a whisk but it takes a bit of effort to bring together.
• I used 1 cup maida and 1/4 cup whole wheat flour.
• I kept the tray in fridge until preheating time may be for 5mins.
• I got around 12 medium sized cookies.
• If the dough is too sticky then grease the butter paper.I did not grease as there was no need.
• The baking timing depends on the cookie size and thickness.If you are making a slighter thicker cookie then it might take 15 mins to get baked fully, so adjust the timing accordingly.
