Filipino Puto Seco
Ingredients
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup powdered milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 dash salt
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 375 degrees Fahrenheit or 190 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a baking sheet and apply a thin layer of oil or cooking spray to prevent the cookies from sticking.
3
Start by combining egg, white sugar, butter, flour, cornstarch, powdered milk, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Use a spoon or whisk to blend the ingredients together until they form a smooth dough.
4
Knead the dough for several minutes, working it into a soft and pliable consistency. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour, giving the cookies a better texture.
5
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Take each portion and shape it into a ball, then gently flatten it slightly.
6
Place the balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie to allow for even spreading during baking.
7
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for around 10 minutes, or until they are lightly browned.
8
Once the cookies have finished baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack. Finally, store the cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
