NOTES

The purpose of milk is only to bind the dough together. So use carefully. Dough shouldn’t become too loose due to extra use of milk. Use as per need primarily.

Since the temperature varies from oven to oven, it may takes less or more time in baking. So do keep an eye while you are baking the cookies. Do not over bake them as then they will become very hard.

Initially the cookies will look soft when hot but after cooling down, they will become crunchy.
