YASMEEN’S COCONUT FREE ROMANY CREAMS
250 g butter
½ cup oil
¾ cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
2 eggs
¼ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 ½ cup flour
Cream butter, sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs together. Add bicarbonate soda, cocoa powder and baking powder and mix. Finally add flour to form a soft dough.
Flatten the dough with a rolling pin and cut out circles using a cookie cutter. Use a fork to shape the lines on the back of the biscuit.
Bake at 180ºC in a pre heated oven for 15 – 20 minutes.
Note: Flour can be less or more to make a soft dough.
Stick the cookies together with melted baking chocolate.
