  • Transfer the dough into a covered bowl and chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • After, it transfers the dough to a worktop and shapes it like a tube.
  • Cut it into manageable chunks.
  • Take a chunk at a time and shape into small balls and slightly flatten the balls.
  • Sprinkle some diced almonds, pistachio or cashews by pressing it gently into the biscuits.
  • Pre heat oven to 180 degrees centigrade. Place the Eggless Cookies on a greased tray leaving enough space between each biscuits to allow them to spread as they cook.
  • Bake Eggless Cookies in the center of the oven for 18-20 minutes depending upon your oven.
