Hi aarthi
I want to ask 1 thing in summer their is any prob in these cookies like little harder in bight... Last tym in winter i tried ur receipe its so prefect in test and also crispy. But today i found its little hard in bight... So plz replyyyyyy
Jenni
I haven’t tested it, but I would guess that’s because the butter melted before getting into the oven. Try to use cold butter and maybe refrigerate between steps.
Abhilasha
Ur receipe is awesome my hubby n familly member like these coconut cookies so much.. I want to ask 1 thisng thei is any difference in making cookies in summer or winter bcz many time i tried this recipe in winter and cookies was awesome in taste and also crispy... But today i tried this recipe in summer so cookies are not found perfect i found little harder in bight... So i think its main reson is summer butter melted so fast so when i maked i found the dough is little softer... Cookies not gating proper shap... Plzzz reply
Aarthi
if cookie dough is too soft. put it in frdige for 15 mins and then make cookies.

Thank you very much for the recipe. The biscuits tasted just like the store bought ones that my mother-in-law asked me why they were warm - she didn't expect that they were homemade ☺️
I measured using weight, but when I made the dough, I felt it was a bit dry and added a spot of milk and some ghee. Was that the right thing to do? If I want it a little more crumbly and a little less sweet, can I increase butter and reduce sugar? Do you think that will work?

Tried this recipe and my kids loved it. Can I add cocoa powder to my dough to make the chocolate version? Thank you so much
Aarthi
yes u can. remove a tblsp of flour and add a tblsp of cocoa
Sandra Gill
I found the quantity of milk is not enough and it was too difficult to add extra in once I had mixed it into the flour. If you are going to make this, you definitely need to use more milk or butter for a better dough to work with.
Archana
Hi Aarthi,
Love your blog! One question though, can I use wheat flour instead of Maida using the same measurements? I'm making it for my one year old and we don't eat maida at home.
Maanas
Dear Aarthi!
I would like to bake some of these for my niece. She loves marie biscuits and we can't get any as we are in a containment zone. All I have is ghee. Can I somehow replace it for butter?
Ruchikka
Hi ! What do you suggest if I were to replace apf, is wheat flour a better choice or oats flour ?
Aarthi
wheat flour would be better
Sam
Thank you for this recipe! Do you flip them over in the oven? mine only got brown on the bottom so i had to flip them to get them to crisp up on the other side
Aarthi
no i didnt flip them. once you take them out of oven, it will remain soft. but as it cools it will harden

Before I try this recipe: Are these the same as "Maria Cookies" sold in stores?
Just wondering, cuz I've never heard of "Marie Cookies", or was that a typo?
