I have the old round oven? While baking in it shall we place the tray directly in oven or place something below the tray?

hi, if i want to make more cookies at a time, can i place another tray at the top or bottom rack of the oven instead of baking a batch after another
Aarthi
@poornimaif u can keep two tray in your oven u can do that, just interchange the tray half way through the baking time so it bakes evenly

Hi Arthi,
Followed the same procedure, Oven had no 180 so used 170 in conv mode for 10min. Initially the cookies were very soft and tasty, on leaving it to cool it became very hard and unable to eat. Any ideas why

Hi Arthi,
Thank you so much for this recipe.My friends and family cannot get enough of them. I added orange zest and glace ginger and made them a little flatter. They were crispy on outside and a bit chewy inside. Very yummy and pretty with the cashew pressed on top. I look forward to trying other recipes of yours. I'm glad I found your site. Ta hi.

Hi Aarthi, can we substitute all purpose flour with whole wheat flour ? How would that affect the taste and texture? Thanks Minakshi

Woow delicious recipe
Farhin
It looks really tasty. I would definitely try it. But as i read tge comments some said the cookies went hard when cooled. What can be the reason behind that. Can u please suggest so that i can ensure that i dont do that mistake.
Aarthi
You have bake it less, it will look soft when you take. But it will harden as it cools. So bake mentioned time or even less and check
Rifka

Aarthi
U must have baked too much. bake less

Looks delicious. Here’s a tip to form cookies — works well. Form dough into 1 inch log. Cut into pieces, then form into rounds. Easy way to end up with uniform cookies.

I tried the cookies today with wheat flour. They turned out amazing! My family loved it! I have tried many of your recipes. They turn out well. The way you explain the procedure with photos is commendable. Great job👏👏
