Though the making of cookies has been imported from overseas, cookies recipe is not new to Indian cuisine. You can make cookies with many flavours. One of the most popular cookie recipes is coconut cookies and biscuits. Coconut cookies may be eggless or may be made of egg yolks. Egg yolks make cookies moist, creamy, and help to remain in shape. However, by adding the baking soda and baking powder instead of egg yolk, you can achieve the same.
Notes: In this recipe, wheat flour has been used instead of plain maida. While plain maida enhances taste, wheat flour is healthy. You may use an old pressure cooker and if you use a traditional oven, bake it at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. In this recipe, desiccated coconut is a must, and never use freshly grated coconut here.
