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! ππ 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??
