Easter wishes to everyone .. Some how I though these cookies will be posted on easter but am one day late. My daughter loves easter egg hunt and back there we always had so much fun on easter she really missed it this year. Baked my heart and soul for last 2 weeks last month and am badly missing baking now .. I love baking cookies and cakes , thought cookies are welcoming in my home but cakes take rest after 2-3 slices , am so grateful to those friends around us who constantly support me to finish all my baking there. Now when I was thinking make a cookie I came across this fluffy lamb cookie and I baked them immediately without second thought and they came out so gud. They are so easy to make without any fancy cookie cutter , I just loved how they look .. After baking a array of cookies My daughter still appreciates me when I show her the pics , she wants those cookies so am very happy about my cookies as the QC is done by this special person and of course H is always a specimen if am sharing with my friends even if scores little less than 10 /10 then the dish stay at home and finished by h and the lil one.. so I am glad that I have super keen QC done for my food 😉 . Ok coming to the lamb cookie they are so easy to make as I said earlier and they make a perfect party snack and to go with easter theme they are perfect. I original recipe they used wheat flour but I used ALP , I know wheat flour would have made it more healthier but I made it with ALP for this time and they turned out so yumm. Moving on to the recipe..
