Cookies lidah kucing instructions

  1. Mix margarin, butter, gula halus, dan pasta vanilla sampai memucat dg speed tinggi..

  2. Masukkan putih telur secara bertahap ya (aku 3x tuang), begitu juga dg tepung. Mix sampai benar-benar rata dan mengembang..

  3. Masukkan adonan kedalam piping bag, semprotkan diatas loyang lidah kucing (olesi loyang dg margarin terlebih dahulu agar cookies tidak lengket, cukup oles diawal saja. Mencetak kedua kalinya tidak perlu dioles margarin lagi dan jangan lupa panaskan oven terlebih dulu 😉). Cukup gunakan api kecil selama memanggang. Kalau pakai otang seperti saya, letakkan loyang di rak kedua atau paling atas juga bisa. Panggang sampai matang dan berwarna kuning kecoklatan..

  4. Setelah dingin langsung masukkan kedalam toples..
