Ingredients

  • 75 gms Maida / All-purpose flour
  • 75 gms Butter, softened at room temp
  • 55 gms Icing sugar / Powdered sugar
  • 25 gms Cornflour - makes cookies soft

  • 2 tbsp Milk, as needed

Method / Instructions

  1. Preheat: Preheat oven to 160°C for 10 mins. Line tray with butter paper.
  2. Mix dry: Sieve maida, icing sugar, cornflour, cocoa powder together in a bowl.
  3. Mix wet: Add soft butter + vanilla essence to dry mix. Rub with fingers till crumbly.
  4. Dough: Add milk 1 tbsp at a time. Bring together into soft dough. Don't knead hard.
  5. Rest: Cover and rest dough for 30 mins. This makes cookies soft.
  6. Shape: Roll into small balls or roll dough + cut with cookie cutter. Place on tray with gap.
  7. Bake: Bake at 160°C for 20 mins. Cookies will feel soft - that's normal.
