Instructions
-
Preheat Oven & Prepare Baking Sheet
Start by preheating your oven to 160°C (325°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it well to prevent the cookies from sticking. -
-
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the Vivatta Maida (all-purpose flour) and Horlicks. Whisk together until the ingredients are well-blended. Set this mixture aside for later. -
Cream Butter and Sugar
Using an electric mixer or a wooden spoon, beat the butter and sugar together until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. This will help create the perfect texture for your cookies. -
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the dry flour and Horlicks mixture to the butter and sugar mixture. Continue beating until a soft dough forms, ensuring that all ingredients are well combined. -
Shape the Cookies
Roll the dough into small balls, about one teaspoon of dough each, and place them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced about 2 inches apart. Use a fork to slightly flatten each ball of dough, creating a ridged pattern on the top, or you can simply flatten them with your finger for a more rustic look. -
Bake
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven at 160°C (325°F) for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. The cookies will still be soft to the touch, but don’t worry – they will firm up as they cool. -
Cool and Serve
Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them firm up and hold their shape.
