Servings: 20 two inch cookies
Equipment
- Non Stick Pan, Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter or 1 stick
- 1/8 tsp Salt
- 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 tsp Corn Starch
- 1 cup Bleached All-Purpose or Maida
- 2 tsp Melted Butter for greasing
- 2 tbsp Mini Chocolate Chips optional
Instructions
- Take softened butter with powdered sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Just lightly cream them together using a whisk or spoon.
- Add corn starch powder and refined flour to this and mix well to combine.
- Knead gently to make a soft but firm dough.
- Fold in chocolate chips or nuts.
- Pre-heat a non stick pan over medium flame and keep it ready.
- Grease a non stick pan to cook / bake the cookies. Grease the pan with some butter if you plan to directly bake without parchment paper.
- Line the pan with parchment. Greasing the parchment paper is optional, adds more buttery tough to the cookies.
- Take a teaspoon of dough, shape into a ball and flatten to make a 1/4 inch thick disc.
- Place the shaped cookie dough on the pan. Do not overcrowd, space them out evenly.
- Place this pan over the pre heated pan and cover with a lid.
- Keep the flame at medium for first 5 minutes and let it cook.
- Then reduce the flame to lowest setting and continue to cook for another 20 minutes.
- When done, the cookies will look lightly browned on the bottom with crisp edges. May seem under cooked but will set once it cools completely.
- Remove and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- Treat yourself with one!
- Store the rest in an air-tight container and they should last for a week!
