Finger nail halloween witch cookies are so yum!
These are so fun. They would be great at a party. So cute. Thanks for sharing, Priya.
Hi Priya..Thanks for sharing this easy recipe.. If i dont have cookie sheets, can i directly place these on a greased baking tray?
yes you can Krithika but do not over grease the tray and keep a watch on the cookies. greasing sometimes leads to change of colour at the bottom of the cookies..
Such a scary cookies,so good
looks so good..perfectly made…i loved the color
What a fantastic idea priya..I am going to try this figers this year.
thank you dear 🙂
Hi Priya, loved the idea of these cookies. I tried today but its becoming quite flat ibstead of round like yours. I tried refrigerating the dough overnight, its better but still getting flat. Can u suggest what can be done.
I would suggest you to add a little bit more flour if the dough is too soft to shape it.
