NANKHATAI COOKIES WITH ROSE & CHAI SPICES
Ready In: 40 mins
Serves: 8-10
Ingredients
- 1 cup wheat flour
- 1⁄2 cup rice flour
- 1⁄2 cup butter
- 3⁄4 cup powdered sugar
- 6 tablespoons milk, plus more for dough (or any type of milk with some fat)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Directions
- Place milk and honey in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, reduce heat and add RawSpiceBar's Chai & Rose Spices. Simmer on very low heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Sift together flours, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
- Rub together butter and flour mixture, until resembling small breadcrumbs. Add sugar and combine ingredients.
- Create a well in dough and add milk & spices from saucepan. Combine all ingredients and roll dough into a ball. Add additional milk if dough is too dry. Chill dough in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes, until dough is cold and firm.
- Flour a clean surface and roll out the pastry until about 1/2 cm thick. Cut into shapes of choice- either with a cookie cutter or, if you don't have one, a circular glass rim.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the cut cookies about 1/2 inch apart.
- Bake the cookies for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven.
- Serve warm and, if preferred, dunk in a cup of your favorite hot milky tea.
