Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, sift together the refined flour and custard powder. This ensures a light and airy cookie texture.

  • In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. This incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a tender crumb.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cookies tough.
  • If the dough seems too stiff to pipe, add a little milk, a teaspoon at a time, until it reaches a smooth, pipeable consistency.
  • Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle. If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pipe small rosettes onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about ½ inch between each cookie.

  • Refrigerate the cookies for 15 minutes to firm up the dough. This helps prevent them from spreading too much during baking.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Bake the chilled cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Watch closely as they can brown quickly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to an airtight container for storage.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • Baking time depends on cookie size: 8-10 minutes for small cookies, 10-12 minutes for larger ones.
  • Watch the cookies closely and remove them when the edges turn golden brown.
  • The cookies will be soft initially but will crisp up as they cool.

Expert Tips

  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking for perfectly shaped cookies.
  • Use a cookie scoop for uniform sizing, ensuring even baking.
  • Don't overbake! Slightly underbaked cookies will result in a chewier texture.

Storage Instructions

  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • For longer storage, freeze the baked cookies in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
