Sieve the dry ingredients : Wholewheat flour, custard powder, salt, baking soda, baking powder. To this add
dessicated coconut and mix well.

Add the powdered brown sugar (I used brown sugar cubes and powdered). Now add the oil and vanilla essence and bring it to a smooth dough (don’t knead)

If its too try, add a tbsp of milk, and bind it (I didn’t use milk). Preheat the oven to 165 deg C . Rest the
dough for 5 mins, covered.

Make small roundels of the dough and flatten it with fork, place on lined baking tray. Use the rest of the dough to get similar cookies.

With a fork, mark striations on the cookie. This is totally optional, but gives it a festive look

Bake for 12-15 mins (mine was done at 14 mins) or when they start to crinkle and done at the edges.

They will remain slightly soft when taken out and harden within 10 mins on a cooling rack.

Store in a airtight container once completely cooled

Serve with milk or as a post school / post workout snack.
