Fresh from the oven these little salty and sweet cookies flavored with the earthy sweetness cumin is so Yum!

Instructions
- In a pan, dry roast the cumin seeds till they are slightly brown and fragrant, this takes around 2-3 minutes. Allow it to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the icing sugar and unsalted butter with the hand blender, until both are incorporated well.
- Now, sieve in the flour in butter-sugar mix and add salt.
- Mix well so that all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add cumin seeds & baking powder and make a soft dough with your hand.
- Add milk (if required) little by little to bring together the cookie dough.I have used milk while making my batch of cookies.
- Set the dough for about 10 minutes.
- Now line your baking tray with parchment or butter paper and keep aside.
- Pre heat your oven at 180 degree celsius (350 F) for about 10-12 minutes.
- No dust your work surface with flour and roll the dough sprinkle the left over cumin seeds and cut the cookies in desired shape and size.
- Place the cookies on the lined baking tray. See that there is some gap between the cookies while you place them on the tray.
- Keep the cookies in refrigerator for 5- 10 minutes.
- Now bake the cookies in pre heated oven at 180 degree celsius for 14 -15 minutes till they are slight golden from the bottom.
- Place the cookies on the wired rack to cool completely.
- Store in the air tight container.
- Voila , your cookies are ready to serve with green tea or masala chai or just with a glass of milk to your kids as evening snack.
Notes
- The baking time may vary depending upon the thickness and size of the cookies. Also temperature varies from oven to oven.
- Use butter at room temperature.
- If using salted butter, skip adding butter while making a dough.
- You can add semi crushed cumin seeds if you do not like the whole cumin seeds.
- You can add chili or herbs for extra spice.
- If you want your cookies to be crisp, bake for some extra minutes. For me I baked them little less for slightly soft cookies.
- The cookies will be slightly soft when your take them out of the oven but will be perfect after cooking.
- I have used medium cookie cutter and got 15 cookies.
