Ingredients
- 1 cup Maida (All Purpose Flour)
- ½ cup Butter Softened
- ½ cup Sugar
- ½ cup Tutti Frutti
- ½ teaspoon Cardamom Powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Essence
Instructions
Cookie Dough Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, add butter and sugar and beat it with a electric hand mixer or a whisk till the mixture is fluffy. Make sure the butter is soft and it is in room temperature. Do not microwave the butter.
Mixing Rest of Ingredients
- Mix Vanilla essence, cardamom powder and tutti frutti and fold together.
Dough Making Process
- Then add maida ½ cup at a time, and gently fold everything together. Mix everything together so that i can form a dough. If you are not able to make a dough and the mixture is very crumble, then sprinkle little milk and knead together to make a dough. Do not add more milk. Just add a teaspoon and check if you can make a dough
Dough Setting Process
- Take the cookie dough and make it in the shape of a cylinder like a log. Wrap the cookie dough with a cling wrap and place it in refrigerator for an hour.
Pre-heating Pressure Cooker
- After 1 hour, Keep a Pressure cooker on medium flame. Add 2 cups of salt or fine sand. Also we need to keep a perforated plate or a flat bowl upside down. The main reason for keeping this is that the baking tray or vessel in which we place the cookies should not touch the sand/salt directly. So I have kept a flat bowl upside down. Now Close the pressure cooker with the lid. We should not put the whistle or gasket on the lid. Let the cooker gets heated in medium flame for 10 mins
Prepare the Cookies
- While the pressure cooker is getting pre-heated, take out the refrigerated cookie dough and using a sharp knife cut into ½" pieces. Place the cookie pieces in a baking sheet lined tray or a steel or aluminium vessel. I used Anajara petti (spice box).
Pressure Cooker Baking Time
- Keep the flame medium-low and place the baking tray on top of the perforated plate or upside down bowl. Close the cooker with the lid. Again we should not put gasket and whistle. Let the cookies get baked inside the pressure cooker for atleast 12-15 mins. Check the cookies in regular intervals to make sure they are not getting burnt.
Cooling & Storing
- Once the cookies are light brown and crispy, Take out the vessel from the cooke and let it cool down for couple of minutes. Then gently take out the cookies and place it on the cooling rack. Let the cookies gets cooled down. Then store it in air-tight container
Serving Time!
- Serve the delicious Tutti Frutti Biscuits (Karachi Biscuits) with hot tea and coffee and enjoy this wonderful snack!
You can also cook it in Oven
- We can use the conventional oven to bake these yummy cookies. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F or 170 degrees C and bake the cookies for 10 mins
