I jos jedni keksici koji su se sa Dajaninog bloga preselili u moju kuhinju!
Keksici su poneli naziv koji im u potpunosti odgovara, nezni i mlecni. Idealni za decicu, grickanje uz popodnevnu kafu, kratko receno - jednostavno savrseni!
500 gr brasna
1 kasicica praska za pecivo
175 gr maslaca
130 gr secera
200 gr (zasladjenog) kondenzovanog mleka
1 jaje
aroma po zelji: korica limuna/narance, malo cimeta, esencijalno ulje limuna ili narance (10-12 kapi), vanila ili zamenite deo secera u receptu secerom s lavandom
za ukrasavanje (ukoliko zelite da ih ukrasavate): otopljena bela i/ili tamna cokolada
Izmiksajte maslac, secer, kondenzovano mleko da dobijete kremastu smesu. Dodajte prvo jaje i aromu po zelji, a zatim postepeno umesajte brasno, mesajuci prvo varjacom, a zatim rukama dok ne dobijete mekano testo.
Podelite testo na tri dela, svaki deo zasebno umotajte u prozirnu foliju pa ostavite u frizideru najmanje pola sata. Sto testo duze boravi u frizideru to ce biti lakse za valjanje i secenje.
Zatim deo po deo testa rastanjite oklagijom i isecite oblike po zelji. Slozite ih u pleh oblozen papirom z pecenje i pecite oko 10-ak minuta u rerni zagrejanoj na 180 stepeni.
Kod mene su svi keksici dobili izgled cvetica i zavrsili nafilovani tj. spojeni pekmezom i nestali su brzinom svetlosti! Mozda sam mogla samo malo tanje da ih razvijem pre secenja ali ni ovako nismo imali primedbi :)
English version:
Delicate Milk Cookies
(recipe adapted from here)
Ingredients:
500 g (1.1 lb) flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
175 g (6 oz) butter
130 g (4.5 oz) sugar
200 g (7 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 egg
(your choice between) lemon/orange zest OR a little cinnamon OR orange/lemon essential oil (10-12 drops) OR vanilla extract or powder, OR substitute part of the sugar in the recipe with lavender sugar
for decoration: jam, melted dark or white chocolate
Method:
Beat the butter, the sugar and the condensed milk until pale and creamy. Beat in the egg, then sift in the flour mixed with the baking powder. Work with a spoon and then with your hands to get a smooth dough. Divide into three equal parts, form discs and wrap each of them in piece of plastic wrap. Refrigerate for about one hour (even longer is fine, mine sat in the fridge for three hours and it was perfectly fine to work with).
Preheat the oven to 180°C (375°F).
Roll the dough out between two sheets of baking paper to 3-4 mm thick and cut out the shapes you prefer with cookie cutters. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake for about 10 minutes. They should stay pale.
Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack.
When they're cold you can sandwich them with a little fruit jam or decorate with melted chocolate, or simply dust with powdered sugar.
