Recipe for this powder cookies for kids:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup milk powder (I used Nido)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- For decorating: I used chocolate chips, cocoa powder, and white chocolate
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, milk powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
At this point, you can separate the dough into two.
one half with cocoa powder and chocolate chips to get chocolate chip cookies.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, form the dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
For the other half, leave it plain to get sugar cookies. Roll the dough and cut it with Cookie cutters of your choice, based on the season and occasion.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
I decorated the sugar cookies with some white and dark chocolate.
These milk powder cookies are a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen, and they’re sure to love the sweet, creamy flavor of the milk powder. You can also decorate them with sprinkles for added fun. Enjoy!
Tip:
Preschoolers can help add the ingredients to the bowl and mix. They can also help with the rolling and cutting…
