Diwali Special Cookies Recipe
A very happy and prosperous Diwali to all the readers. I wish you all the happiness and success in life. It is one festival we always celebrate with great pomp and fare.
I start preparing at least 10 days before the Diwali day for the festivity. Cleaning the entire house thoroughly would be the first thing to do. My hubby dread this part as he is also expected to help me with the bed boxes and lofts. Then comes the making of the dry snacks. And as I have always seen my mom making big baskets full of mathries, shakkerpare, chivda mix and a lot of other snacks, I want to keep the tradition going.
I made rangoli pattern and diya for Diwali. Last year I made these sugar cookies to give Diwali spread a modern twist. The cookies were light and crisp. They were much appreciated and so I want to share them with you all. Here is the recipe.
Ingredients

- All purpose flour- 230 gms
- Baking soda- ½ tsp
- Butter- 115 gms
- Salt- ¼ tsp

- Vanilla extract- 1tsp

Method Of Preparation
