  • Leave it on the baking tray for few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Notes: 
  • To make 1 cup of icing sugar ,powder together 1 cup granulated sugar and  1 tbsp cornflour until it turns into a fine powder.
  • Use milk only if the dough is stiff.
  • You can also divide the dough into equal sizes balls and lightly flatten with your palm and bake.

  • Make sure the oven temperature is right,if the temp is high the cookies will go flat.
