Hi..
What flour is to be used? Is all-purpose flour okay?
For the butter, To use salted or unsalted?
Thanks!
Hi Ayne, I used all-purpose flour and salted butter in this recipe.
Hi, i followed the instructions except for the temperature as I’m only using an electric oven so i tried to decrease the temperature to 140C, in less than 6 minutes my cookies got burnt on the sides ;(, and didn’t turn out to be crunchy… please advise. thank you 🙂
Hi Claudz, sorry to hear that but i haven’t tried using an electric oven and the oven temperature should be exact, it helps to have a crisp cookies. And these cookies needs an extra attention ‘coz they tend to burnt easily, so you have to keep an eye for it. As they cool down the cookies get crispy maybe they are still soft in the center?? Hope you try it again and make it perfect.
