Ingredients

  • 200 grams Ragi Flour/Finger Millet Flour
  • 50 grams Whole-wheat Flour
  • 25 grams Cocoa Powder (4 tablespoons)
  • 200 grams Unsalted Butter (soft spreadable butter consistency)
  • 140 grams Jaggery Powder (use Organic Jaggery)
  • Pinch Table Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Milk

Instructions

  • Thaw the butter for sufficient amount of time until it is of the spreadable consistency.
  • Measure and sift both flours and the cocoa powder. Add the butter to this bowl of dry ingredients.
  • Start rubbing the flour and butter together until the mixture is combined.
  • Now, add jaggery powder and crush any lumps present with your fingers. Sift the jaggery powder if needed. Mix gently. Do not knead.
  • Finally, add the milk and bring the dough together. Do not knead.
  • Shape cookies as per your wish and chill the entire tray in the fridge for atleast an hour.
  • Preheat the oven at 180°C for 10 minutes. Take the tray out from the fridge and bake the cookies with both rods on for 12-15 minutes.
  • If you want to bake soft cookies, bake using only the lower rod of the oven.
  • Once baked, transfer all cookies to the cooling tray. All cookies will be soft once out of the oven and will harden with time spent on the counter as they cool. They will stay soft later as well if you have baked them using the lower rod.
  • Store in an airtight container within easy reach for a guilt-free snack.
