This is a crunchy eggless cashew biscuit which is totally yum. I had a bunch of cashews lying in the fridge which was so not so good when had on its own. So i used it in baking recipes.

      Hi Aarti! Cookies look great:). I have a small question. How do the cookies rise without adding any leavening agent(baking powder or soda)& do they melt in mouth after they get baked? Please respond,thanks!

      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.

        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

      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.
