Raisin Cookies

This cookie is not chewy and not soft...just perfect to melt in your mouth. You may add more sugar if you have a super sweet tooth. I like it as is...

Simple ingredients:

• 6 Tbsp. butter, softened
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp. powdered milk
• 3 eggs yolks
• 1 1/3 cup flour
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1 egg for coating

Easy to make:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugar and milk powder together with an electric mixer until creamy and lighter color.
3. Add one egg yolk at a time, beat until well blend and thicken (about 5 minutes).
4. Add flour and raisin, mix with a plastic spatula into a dough. Place the dough in between two pieces of plastic wraps. Flatten the dough with hands or a rolling pin. Cut into the shapes that you prefer. ( it's easier to cut by dipping a knife into a water so that batter will not stick on the knife).
5. Place the cookie bars on a large non-stick cookie sheet. Brush egg liquid on the top.
6. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown.

 

Leftover Egg Whites:
Don't waste them! You may use them to make Easy Crispy Drop Cookies, Chocolate macaroon, Almond Cookies or Rolo cupcakes.
