It has been very difficult to feed dry fruits to my kids. Eating nuts as it is , is a difficult part. So I tried adding nuts powder in cookies. And you wont believe these cookies vanished within no time. These rich and delicious cookies with lots of almond and pistachio powder are most popular and preferred cookies in India. As Christmas is around, its perfect time to bake these cookies.
