【Baking for Beginners】Margherita Cookies

Overview

A biscuit that is basically known to those who have been involved in baking - margarita biscuits, which have a crispy texture and melt in your mouth. They are also the easiest biscuits to make. This is the first time I made this biscuit. Because I walked away for a while during the baking process and didn't pay attention to the changes in the biscuits, the color was a little dark and the cup...but the taste didn't have a big impact, and it tasted great. The amount made here can bake two trays of cookies.

  9. Put it in the oven at 170 degrees, 15, until the edges are slightly browned. (Everyone’s home oven is different, so it’s best to stick to the edge of the oven when the cookies are baking, especially in the last few minutes, as they will color quickly. Don’t be as careless as me)
