Pretty little melts-in-the-mouth cookies :D Suppose to roll the cookie in sugar before baking, but run out of sugar!! just enough sugar to bake this batch of cookies >o< Therefore I dust some icing sugar over the cookies after baking :D Should call them rainbow snow cookies instead :D :D
Notice the little black specks in the cookies?? they are natural vanilla seeds from the pure vanilla bean paste I've used :D

Really v attractive!
Curious, is vanilla paste the same as extract? In terms of amount, can it directly substitute? :)
hanushi...vanilla paste seems to be more natural compare to extract unless the pdt indicate is pure extract no artificial flavours added. I substitute directly 1 tsp essence = 1 tsp paste This btl cost me $22+ so I must use sparingly >.<
Your cookies look really really good and pretty - I would love to have a bite!
Hi Peng, can i know where you have bought your bottle of Vanilla Paste.
KarenL..from Shermay Cooking School at Holland V
Thanks Peng. I suspect as much that you bought it from there. Was trying to see if there's a more convenient location that sells this good stuff :)
