I''m on a salt restricted diet so I used unsalted butter and did not add the additional salt. Taste was wonderful however I think I didn''t quite make it properly because the cookies melted on the cookie sheet and did not look like your picture how long should I need the dough
I want to ask u which butter we have to used salted or unsalted??
how many days will it stay good if stored in an air right container?
Can i use whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour(maida)? Do i need to add any more ingredients in case i use whole wheat flour?
I made these cookies for Diwali in 2016, and I should have tripled the recipe because every one loved them so much! I was told I should open an Indian bakery here in town. I am making another batch for tomorrow''s pooja and I''ll make five times what the recipe yields. Thank you so much for such a perfect recipe!
I am going to try out this recipe this weekend. I know it will turn out to be delicious as all other Tarla Dalal''s recipes. but I have one doubt regarding the ingredients. You haven''t mentioned about adding baking powder. Is it not required for the cookies? Please suggest!
These cookies gives a very nice mouthfeel in every bite.. and it was enjoyed with all at tea time..
