Equipment
Non Stick Pan, Parchment Paper
Ingredients
1/2cupUnsalted Butter or 1 stick
1/8tspSalt
1/2cupPowdered Sugar
1tspCorn Starch
1cup Bleached All-Purpose or Maida
2tspMelted Butter for greasing
2tbspMini Chocolate Chipsoptional
Instructions
Take softened butter with powdered sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Just lightly cream them together using a whisk or spoon.
Add corn starch powder and refined flour to this and mix well to combine.
Knead gently to make a soft but firm dough.
Fold in chocolate chips or nuts.
Pre-heat a non stick pan over medium flame and keep it ready.
Grease a non stick pan to cook / bake the cookies. Grease the pan with some butter if you plan to directly bake without parchment paper.
Line the pan with parchment. Greasing the parchment paper is optional, adds more buttery tough to the cookies.
Take a teaspoon of dough, shape into a ball and flatten to make a 1/4 inch thick disc.
Place the shaped cookie dough on the pan. Do not overcrowd, space them out evenly.
Place this pan over the pre heated pan and cover with a lid.
Keep the flame at medium for first 5 minutes and let it cook.
Then reduce the flame to lowest setting and continue to cook for another 20 minutes.
When done, the cookies will look lightly browned on the bottom with crisp edges. May seem under cooked but will set once it cools completely.
Remove and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
Treat yourself with one!
Store the rest in an air-tight container and they should last for a week!
