I have already tried many varieties of cookies but still they do exist many which are quite creative, interesting, cute and effortless cookies. One of my recent bake is these attractive shaped cookies aka Colour Pencil cookies. Actually i baked this cookies for an event, as a member of this baking group i baked this colour pencil as this event goes for weekly baking. When i saw this colour pencil cookies, i couldnt resist myself to bake some. Obviously i opted for an eggless version though the original recipe calls for an egg yolk. However even without egg, this cute cookies came out absolutely buttery.
Kids enjoyed thoroughly this cuties with their favourite drink, needless to say this cookies are super dangerously addictive. Trust me, if you are planning to make this cookies, dont forget to make them in huge batch else you will definitely regret.Though i baked a box of these cookies, they just vanished very quickly within few minutes. Apart from food colour, this cookies goes for basic ingredients and these buttery cookies will definitely satisfy your tastebuds.An excellent evening snack to enjoy thoroughly with your usual cup of tea or coffee. Am running my third week of blogging marathon with evening snacks as theme for this week, obviously these cute looking eggless colour pencil cookies goes to this week's theme.Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#58.
