Looks super tempting kugan...have to make this asap!

Dear Aarthii, how are you and your family?
Thanks for your post and welcome.
Hope every thing is fine.
Will mail you soon. Kugan

Dear Ramrish, thanks for your nice post.
Glad to know that you want to try the recipe.
As I have replied to Dev, you can use a cookie cutter.
One more tip, keep the dough in the fridge for about 20 minutes.
It will be easier to roll and cut the cookies.
I will soon post a recipe for choco chip cookies.
Thanks and take care, Kugan
