Ingredients

Instructions

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. 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.
