Tips & Notes

  1. Temperature of the oven may vary. Adjust your oven temperature accordingly.
  2. If the dough is too dry to handle, add a bit of flour but not too much. As long as they are pliable, that’s good enough.
  3. You can replace butter with margarine or lactose free butter.
  4. You can use unsalted butter if you prefer but you might need to add some salt into the dough (adjust the salt to your taste buds).
  5. Double or triple up the recipe ingredients for a big batch.
  6. We used whole milk powder for rich flavor.
