Ingredients
  

1 cup = 250 ml

FOR THE COOKIE DOUGH

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (135 gram)
  • 1/3 cup milk powder (43 gram)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened - 125 gram)
  • 6 tbsp brown sugar (83 gram)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

FOR DOODH PATTI (BREWED MILK)

  • 4 tbsp milk
  • 1 tbsp tea leaves/chai patti
  • 3 green cardamoms
  • Small piece of cinnamon
  • Small piece of ginger
  • 1 clove

Instructions
 

MAKING OF DOODH PATTI

  • Add green cardamoms, cinnamon, ginger and clove in a mortar.
  • Crush them coarsely with the pestle.
  • NOTE : If you are already having chai masala, no need to take these ingredients. Just use 1 tsp chai masala powder.
  • In a small saucepan, add these crushed spices (or chai masala), milk and tea leaves.
  • Simmer on lowest heat until reduced and turn dark milky-brown (you should be left with about 3 tbsp).
  • Strain and leave aside to cool down completely.

MAKING OF COOKIES DOUGH

  • Take butter and sugar in a bowl.
  • Whisk until creamy.
  • Add the brewed milk.
  • Mix again.
  • Then add flour, milk powder, baking powder and salt.
  • Mix them all using your hand.
  • Bring them together into a dough.
  • NOTE : If the dough is little dry, you can add 1 or 2 tbsp of milk. Alternatively if the dough becomes loose, you can place the bowl in refrigerator for few minutes until dough comes to right consistency.
  • Take a lemon sized dough, round it into a ball and arrange on a baking tray lined with greased butter paper or parchment paper or silicon mat. Do it with the entire dough.
  • Flatten each ball. We have used a greased glass base for the purpose.
  • To make the cookies more attractive, we have designed then using a toothpick. You can leave the cookies as it is or design in any way you like.
  • Place the tray in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Bake in preheated oven @170°C for 25-30 minutes or until edges of the cookies begin to turn brown. We had to do it twice because of the number of cookies.
  • Bring the tray out and let cookies cool down completely.
  • Enjoy.
