Have sat on this recipe for quite a while. Partly cos I am lazy to get a pack of icing sugar just to bake them. Fortunately, a nice neighbour passed me just enough of them so I can finally try baking them!
My first time after so long piping cookies! Awwww, my hands or rather my whole palm was aching as I was halfway thru the first tray! Took a while to really managed to get that rosette shape out. But the sizes were all still hard to guage! 🙊🙊 But it was fun seeing them so beautifully piped!
The problem that some bakers make, I said some as most are experts in getting beautifully browned butter cookies, is that a split moment will get the cookies more browned or less browned. And this was what happen when I lost focus for a while during the last few minutes! Hahahahahaa! But luckily enough, it didnt affect the taste at all. Its only the shade of the brown-ness!
I added vanilla pods to my batter as I love seeing those vanilla specks in the bake. And so happen that I recently bought some. I decided to use 1 for the cookies! Oh so fragrant in my sense. The cookies were melty, which I would prefer more crunch, perhaps omit the cornflour nxt bake. The sweetness was just nice and not overly sweet! Yums! Love them!!
Can you see them??
