The Original Indian Cookie- Nankhatai

Mix up the maida, sugar, ghee and cardamom powder with a very light hand. The dough just needs to come together. Can add a little more ghee if dough feels a little dry. Preheat the oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes.

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Make small balls and press lightly to flatten them. Place on the tray. With a sharp knife put a cross on each. Bake for about 10-12 minutes till the base turns light brown.

Let stand in oven for 5 minutes. Remove and cool on wire rack. Store in air tight jar.
