- 3/4 cup oil

- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- A pinch of salt
Preparation Method:
- In a bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla, sugar, and baking powder until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is well combined.

- In a separate bowl, place 2 cups of flour, setting aside 1/4 cup.
- Add the cornstarch and a pinch of salt to the 2 cups of flour and mix well.
- Add the liquid mixture to the flour mixture and stir until well combined.
- Knead the dough by hand. If the dough is too sticky, add the remaining 1/4 cup of flour and knead.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper. If you don’t have parchment paper, you can grease the tray with a little oil.
- Divide the dough into small pieces and shape them into balls the size of a lemon. Arrange them on the tray, leaving space between each ball.
- Gently press each ball with a bottle cap to flatten slightly.
- Use the bottle cap to create a crescent shape on each cookie.
Baking Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Place the tray in the middle rack of the oven for 5 minutes.
- Leave the cookies in the oven for 20-30 minutes, keeping an eye on them until they turn golden brown on the bottom.
- Let the cookies cool, then serve with tea or juice.
Tips for Successful Ten-Minute Cookies:
- Use a standard measuring cup (250 ml) for accurate measurements.
- You can add orange zest to enhance the flavor of the cookies.
