    6 shares

    Eggless Finger Millet Thumbprint Cookies Recipe:

    Preparation & Cooking Time : 40 mins

    Makes about 20 cookies


    Ingredients:

    Finger Millet Flour / Ragi Flour: 1 cup
    Unsalted Butter: ½ cup, softened
    Powdered Sugar: ½ cup
    Vanilla Essence : ½ tsp
    A pinch of Salt
    Cashews : ½ cup
    Fruit Jam : 4 tbsp (I uses mixed fruit jam here)

    Other Ingredients:


    Water: ½ cup
    Sugar : 1 tsp
    Corn Flour: 1 tsp

    Method:

    1. To toast the nuts, preheat
    the oven to 180 degree C. Spread the cashew nuts on a baking tray and
    bake them for 7 – 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them cool
    completely. Chop or grind the nuts coarsely and set aside.

    2. In a small bowl, add a teaspoon of sugar, corn flour and water and beat it until frothy. Keep it aside.

    3. Sieve / mix the flour and salt together and set aside.

    4. Preheat the oven to 180 degree C

    5. In
    a bowl, combine the softened butter, powdered sugar and vanilla essense
    and beat it until light and fluffy.

    6. Add the mixed flour to the butter
    mixture and mix everything to make a dough.

    7. Divide the dough into 20 balls. Dip the each ball into the corn flour mixture and then
    lightly roll in the prepared nuts.

    8. Place them on a baking tray spacing
    about 1 inch apart.

    9. Using your thumb or a small cap, make a indention
    into the center of each dough ball. Now fill each indention with melted
    jam.

    10. Bake for about 13 – 15 minutes 180 degree C.

    11. Then remove from
    the oven and let them cool down for 2-3 minutes before taking them of
    the baking tray.

    12. Place them on a wire rack to cool. Store in a airtight container.
