I love baking cookies. Baking cookies to me signify to me that good things are about to come. And though I believe everything can be achieved with hard-work, you got to trust me when I say these cookies are absolutely effortless. Buttery and crumbly, with a melt-in-your-mouth texture, these Eggless Custard Cookies are delicious and super easy to make! Custard Powder is the magical ingredient in this recipe that gives it that beautiful yellow tinge. Serve as a tea time snack with a hot cup of tea.
