Can I use melted butter instead of oil?Will it change the texture and taste?
@shubhayes ofcourse you could use melted butter. It wont affect the texture, it will remain same.
I tried this yesterday.i loved the smell and taste as i cannot custard flavour.
but i felt the cookie was bit hard.is it the nature of wheat flour cookie or did i over bake
in the 12th minute it wasn't fully cooked so i it for another 3 mins by then the base became dark brown
other mistakes are:
i made it too flat thinking it would rise
i mixed the dry ingredients and took a long time to knead as i was held up with something else.Will the presence of bak.soda and powder for long time make it hard?but i just mixed didn't knead
@cindhujaU have over baked it..the cookies will look soft when u take it out of oven, but as it cools it will get harder..so dont baked longer than the mentioned time..
I just tried this Aarti and must say IT was just toooooo good 👍👍 sold out within family in minutes :)) thank u so much for this recipe 😊
Tried this with part oil and part ghee.Everyone loved it!
Thanks for sharing!
dear I tried ur recipe… but cookies were bit dry and not fully cooked ..but hard enough what could be the reason
Instead if veg oil can we use canola oil
Can I use custard cream instead of custard powder?
@Anonymousi think u have over baked it.
@Arooshiya Mafasyes u can use canola oil
@Anonymousno custard powder has to be used
It came out perfectly but little hard… but i love the egg version…methink it akso keep soft how cud i add egg?
@Arooshiya Mafasi think u have overbaked it.. bake it less time and this cookies remains soft
Aarthi, if i wish to add egg, wn to add it.. Plzz rply..will try it
@Madhui am not sure, haven't tried adding eggs in them
Hi! I have tried so many recipes of yours and all of them came out so perfect.. I have been praised by all for food…But actually all the credit goes to you…sorry for the long post…I want to ask you can I use maida here in this recipe..
@Deepa Guptayes u can use maida
Hi aarthi, tried these cookies today. Liked the custard flavor.
But for 1 cup of flour i required 5 tbsp of milk to form a dough. You added only 1 tbsp.
And my cookies didn't expand as yours added raising agents as mentioned.
I approximately got 20 medium sized cookies. You mentioned as only 10.
@Madhui think u haven't measured properly. Too much milk wont make the cookies spread
Hi Aarthi, can this recipe be made in a pressure cooker. Waiting for ur reply. Thanks.
@Theresa Monteiroyes u can
Hi Dear Thanks for the eggless recipe i did try them all was ok, though I baked them on toast mode in OTG they were slightly chewy n middle and edges were crisp….why so?
Pls advice
Thanks
@Deepti Grover Singhu have to bake this in bake mode
Hi.
You mentioned to line a baking tray with foil. But in pics there is no foil. Is it okay to skip foil and just oil the baking tray well ?
since i used glass i didn;t line it with foil. if you use normal tray line it with foil
Thanks for the wheat based cookies.please post more wheat cookies.
