Homemade Cookies

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 28.2 oz
Sugar - 14.1 oz
Chocolate eggs - 2 pieces
Clarified Butter - 6.3 oz
Milk - 5 fl oz
Activated Baking Soda - a pinch

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Soften the butter to room temperature, add sugar, and beat until fluffy.

Step 2

Beat the eggs, divide the mixture in half, and mix one part of the eggs with the milk into the butter, beating until smooth.

Step 3

Add two pinches of baking soda and baking powder, mix, and then add the flour.

Step 4

Knead a non-sticky dough, roll it out to a thickness of 0.6 cm - 0.8 cm (no more than 1 cm) on a floured surface.

Step 5

Use cookie cutters (or cut shapes from any plastic bottle as I did) to cut out cookies. Then roll the remaining dough into a ball and roll it out again, cutting out more cookies. Repeat until all the dough is used.

Step 6

After that, place the cookies on a baking sheet, brush them with the reserved half of the egg mixture, and bake in a preheated oven at 392°F for 10-12 minutes until golden brown around the edges. Then remove and let cool. It is best to store them in molds, as they become hard and dry out.
