We are all excited to open our gifts tonite and i am very eager to open my gifts,really awaiting..I prepared this crunchy cornmeal cookies yesterday as everyone at home are in holiday except my DH, yeah he is still working today..fortunately he doesnt work for a week after today's work..Its kinda hard to work and woke up early morning here, todays its was too cold and slightly snowy here..Thank god, we r going to have a great time for a week soon..Coming to this cornmeal cookies, i prepared simply with butter, cornmeal, all purpose flour, sugar and vanilla extract with baking powder and they turned out really crispy and delicious..We loved it and it was completely eggless, once u have them this cookies melt in your mouth and were really crispy..


1/2cup Butter
1+1/2cup All purpose flour
1+1/2cup Yellow cornmeal
1cup Powdered sugar
1tbsp Vanilla extract
1/2tsp Baking powder

Preheat the oven to 350F, line a baking sheet over a baking tray, keep aside..In a large bowl, beat together the butter and the powdered sugar until they turns creamy, meanwhile mix the flour,baking powder and cornmeal together and keep aside..gradually add the flours,vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and knead as soft dough, cover the dough with a lid and arrange in fridge for an hour...Make a small balls from the dough and arrange over the baking sheet with enough space..bake for 15-20minutes until they turns golden brown..

  22. Hi Priya, I made your recipe because I liked the higher cornmeal ratio, lighter sugar and fat content (compared to other recipes). However, the recipe as written seems to be missing liquid - could you check your notes? I added an egg and other fluids to make a workable dough that I split 4 ways and flavoured each differently. The flavour and texture were all very nice but none of my cookies spread like yours. At 350F they were done in 12 minutes (1 Tablespoon scoops). I'd like to re-try your recipe again if indeed there were missing ingredients. Thanks very much! May
