Custard Biscuit

i have a box of custard powder that i bought from ALDI (bought because the packaging looks delish =_=)
so, i did not know what to do with that, i thought if i make it into custard for pudding, that would be too normal :(. i resort to mr.google to find a recipe about custard powder, and WOW, i was absolutely amazed that you actually make yO-Yo biscuit, or what we usually call in Aussie as ...... from custard powder. My cousin always says how bloody good the taste is, but i never bought one, they look bloody thick, like 1 cookies can already send me to calorie overload =.=

but, i didn't have caster sugar on hand, so, i decided to make other type of cookies,
and i found CUSTARD COOKIES recipe :)
i was running out of time and wanted to sleep, so i make the quick recipe as published in forksbootssandapalette

i ended up with 3 dozen, using half recipe (coz everyone in my house is not a fan of cookies)... maybe my size was significantly small compared to the original recipe?. It tasted a bit like baby cookies, but only a hint, baby cookies is so much more custard-y :). i have upped the custard by a tablespoon though and add heaps of vanilla, but it did not end up that tasty for me

the appearance , though , pleases me so much :D. The cookies turned out to be very crispy, and it looks yellow !! so cute !! ^^, like the cookies you see on the display of bakery ^^. i am so proud of the appearance :p
i always bake cookies, but ever cookies that i bake always look a bit brown-ish :(
i suppose the formula is to bake it long time in low temperature :D, when i tried to make it chewy, i could not, coz when i under baked it a bit, it turns out cakey, so, i think it HAS TO BE CRISPY
(i love my current oven btw, it never fails me ^^)

conclusion : i won't try the recipe anymore, i have succeeded, and ended up with so much cookies, i do LOVE LOVE the end result, i want more custard-y cookies though ;)

next time i'll try this recipe : custard powder cookies with white chocolate

and custard kisses
