I have decided to start this particular blog again.
It helps me to stay focus and hopefully improve my skills in many areas.
For 2013 Chinese New Year, I baked quite a fair bit.
Cornflake Cookies was one of those baked.
So I am going to share the recipe here.
What you need:
- 120g butter, cut into cubes at room temperature (I used salted butter)
- 50g icing sugar
- 2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- 135g all purpose flour
- 30g corn flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100g corn flakes
- 80g chocolate chips
What you do:
- Place corn flakes in a bag and crush them into smaller pieces. Do not crush them too finely. Set aside.
- Place butter in a mixing bowl and sift icing sugar over it.
- Beat the butter and icing sugar till the mixture turns pale.
- Add in the eggs slowly as you continue to mix. Mix till combine.
- Sift flour and corn flour over the mixture.
- Fold the mixture with a spatula until flour is combined.
- Add in cornflakes and chocolate chips. Mix till combined.
- Arrange mini paper liners on baking tray.
- Using a spoon, spoon a lump into each cup. (I used a melon baller, so it comes out in a rough round shape)
- Bake in preheated oven at 170 degree celsius for 18 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before storing in air tight containers.
I have adapted the recipe from Happy Home Baking.
She used cranberry instead of chocolate chip.
I may just try that another time.
I also have another recipe with is dairy free.
If anyone is interested, please let me know.
