Notes

  1. You can swap wheat flour with all-purpose flour.
  2. You can swap jaggery powder with sugar powder.
  3. for more sweetness of cookies, 2 tbsp more jaggery/sugar powder can be added.
  4. Don't over-knead the dough. It will lead to hard dense cookies.
  5. Make sure to line the baking tray with 3 baking papers to avoid cookies burning from the bottom. Alternatively, a silicone sheet can also be used.
