Aspiring Bakers #3 - My Cashew Nut Cookies (Jan 2011)


By Wen's Delight (Visit website)




My first CNY bakes started with this nutty and crisp Cashew Nut Cookies. Been baking this cookies for the past 4 years and this is the first time sharing the recipe to give my support to Aspiring Bakers #3 - My Favourite CNY Cookies hosted by Jess Kitchen. This recipe was given to me by aunt who used to teach baking at CC in 1980's. Yes my aunt not only can cook but also can bake very well. However she had lost interest in baking since she quited teaching, such a pity but she is still very knowledgeable on baking techniques and ingredients so I will seek her advice at times.
