While kneading the elastic dough, add a spoonful of warm fat milk. I have homemade milk, which I buy from trusted friends.

Knead until the dough reaches the consistency shown in the photo.

Pinch off pieces of dough and form into balls. Flatten the balls.

Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Place the cookies and place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees. Bake for exactly 10 minutes.

During the baking process, the cookies will develop small cracks on top, which will further decorate them.

Let the cookies cool slightly and place on a plate.

How cookies appeared: origin story

Have you ever thought about how long ago cookies appeared and who “gave” these products to the world? That's right - at the same time as bread, and many believe that this happened ten thousand years ago. Of course, ancient products were not distinguished by their sweetness and variety - not like modern ones! – but, imagine, in some sense they even influenced the course of history.

Here is how it was. In the 14th century, Zhu Yuan Zhang lived in China, religiously observing customs incomprehensible to non-Chinese people. Every year, following the ancient rites of the Celestial Empire, on the fifteenth night of the eighth moon for the harvest festival, he baked mooncakes (in our language, cookies).

Zhu Yuan Zhang was not only a responsible pastry chef, but also a patriot. It became increasingly difficult for him to observe the tradition of the fifteenth night of the eighth moon, since the country was ruled not by his native Chinese emperor, but by a Mongol dynasty alien to his heart.

This greatly worried Zhu Yuan Zhang and other freedom-loving citizens. Seated on the mats of safe houses, they prepared an uprising. Finally, its date was agreed upon, but how to communicate it to the broad masses of the people without paying with their lives?

A saving idea came to Zhu Yuan Zhang's mind. The next harvest festival was approaching on the fifteenth night of the eighth moon, and he suggested hiding a note indicating the date of the uprising in one of the moon cakes. The broad masses of the people received the news, regrouped and won. But that's not all: Zhu Yuan Zhang ascended the throne and became the first emperor of China's twenty-first Ming Dynasty. And now the history of its origin is passed on from mouth to mouth, and the recipes for its preparation are ever increasing and being improved.

If far-reaching plans to seize the Chinese throne do not occupy all your time, then with the help of this article you will have time to creatively celebrate any holidays and significantly decorate your everyday life. From Monday to Friday, bake cookies in a hurry, on weekends and special days, surprise everyone with unusual small pastries - instead of cakes.

Delight the birthday people with a hand-baked gift, packaged in an original, creative way. By God, an extraordinary bouquet of multi-colored dough for the birthday of a young lady of any age, a delicious alphabet for a children's party and the general joy from the joint production of homemade confectionery masterpieces in the form of Christmas stars, New Year's cones and Easter bunnies will be remembered no less than the sparkling of expensive crystals in velvet boxes.
