After posting my first cookie
recipe, it’s not my intention to post one more. Since, my son is at home (Preparatory
holiday for exam!!) and always searching something to bite. I was
forced to make something quick, to save my brain! (Otherwise he will eat mine)
– This was the real story behind the making.
To be honest, it’s a normal cookie, but the
sides (outer rings) are coated with finely chopped almonds. Then it becomes an Almond
rolled sugar cookies.
Such variations are quite common in Indian
milk sweets, the edges of the milk sweets are coated with dry fruits, etc.
Okay, Please make sure the
following ingredients are in place : 150
gms of Butter ; 1/3
cup of Sugar ; ¼ cup of Almond (grind with 1tsp of sugar to coarsely ) ; ½
cup of Wheat flour ; ½
cup of All purpose flour ; ½
cup of corn flour ; ¼ cup of
Vanilla custard powder – ¼
cup ;
Egg white – 1 ; pinch of salt.
With the help of kitchen aid, whisk / mix
all the dry ingredient wheat, AP flour, corn, custard flour and salt keep
aside.
Beat butter with sugar till pale in color.
Add 2tbsp dry ingredient to the butter mixture beat it well and then add 2 more
tbsp of flour mixture and mix it and so on, till all the all dry Ingredient are
done.
Cover the dough with cling wrap and keep it
in fridge for about 30 min. Then take dough roll it in to log shape (like
snake) for about 8 inch’s length then brush egg white all sides then rolled it
on the almond mixture. Make sure it is well coated all over the dough.
For my PURE veggie friends, instead of egg
white you may use full fat milk. But make sure to use very little. Otherwise,
the dough will become soggy.
Cover it again with cling wrap and keep it
in fridge for 2 hour.
Cut it into about 1.5 to 2 cm thickness
arrange it in baking tray and keep it again in the refrigerator for 10 to 15
minutes to chill the dough which prevents the cookies from spreading and losing
their shape while baking.
Then, keep the baking tray in the preheated
oven for about 180°c till it becomes light brown in color. Once cooled, keep it in the air tight container.
It’s an anytime healthy snack .
Perfect snack to munch on any time of the day. I will surely try this.
