Dear Aarthi, what should the oven temp be? And on which rack should we keep the tray.
These questions are in regards to the cashew cookies

I have the old round oven? While baking in it shall we place the tray directly in oven or place something below the tray?
@devangi chaudhryi am not sure about that, haven't use that so far
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
@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 aarthi, thanks for the tip, that helps alot
hi aarthi, thanks for the tip, that helps alot
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!
@Anonymousyes these cookies taste buttery
hi aarthi
is it compulsary to place the baking sheet with foil?
@Anonymousyes u need to line with foil or parchment paper
Thanks a lot aarti!! The cookies turned out to be awesome… Very crunchy!! I used ghee as I did not have unsalted butter and instead of kaju added walnuts:))thanks again!!
I made these. They turned out so delicious. I used roasted salted cashews. Wow. I also used ghee butter. My kids loved them. Thank you so much
Can we use almonds instead of cashews?
yes u can
Whatelse can I use instead of parchment paper..?
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
Can apf be replaced with wwf ?? Pls help. Thanks
Woow delicious recipe
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.
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
Neethu na intha recipe try pannunan… Cookie remba hard a irunthuchu… Edhunala appdi irunthuchu nu any suggestion pls….!!!
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.
