During CNY I made cornflake cookies, as it was the tradition at home that we make new year biscuits for new year~ The process of make the cornflake cookies was funny as Lay sim was baking as well so we got 6 blocks of butter...a holly 6 blocks!! Never ate or bought that many in one go in 23 years of my life! I got this idea of writing the recipe up here by sumin *arigato!!* Since many were asking for it...will post up the lemon cheese cake recipy later!
Ingredients:
Plain flour 400g
Baking powder 1/2 tsp
Butter 350g
Caster sugar 200g
Egg 2
Vanilla essence 2 drops
Cornflake lightly crushed accordingly (a medium size box will be more than enough)
Things that you need:
Baking sheets *if you don't you will have to line your baking tray with butter*
Baking trays
*remember to get the ones that would suit the size of your oven.....just got to know recently that there are different sizes of ovens and different sizes of trays to suit. CUZ I got a larger tray
thinking that I can back faster......sigh...it was too big for my oven!! So, the new tray is currently sitting in the pantry doing nothing.*
Mixer
Balance
Measuring cups/spoons
Mixing bowl
Spatula
Container/bowl *to put crushed cornflakes...personally, I prefer a box with flat bottom*
Sieve
Protocol (XD)
1. Cream Butter and sugar till light and fluffy
2. Add in the eggs and vanilla essence and continue beating till blend
3. Fold in the sieved flour and baking powder *this means: you have to use your hand to mix the flour and batter light handedly*
Now you have the dough. Mind you that the dough will not be as hard as a cake dough!
4. Roll the dough into lil balls *approximately the size of a 20 cents(Oz size)*
5. Then, roll the ball dough into the crushed cornflakes coating the batter.
6. Place the dough onto the baking tray *pre-lined* and flat it out a little. Remember to leave some space in between the dough as it will get bigger during baking.
7. Bake at 180°C for approximately 20 minutes *the backing time vary with the type of oven
you have. DO NOT use too high a temperature as the cookie will not be cooked and
it will burn!!!!!!!*
TADAAA.....you now have your cookies!!! Let it cool before placing the cookies into containers ^.^
Hope you enjoy the recipe!!
