Lotus Flower Blossom Cookie Recipe 45

LOTUS FLOWER BLOSSOM COOKIE RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, mix everything together (except oil because that's used for frying). Make sure there are no lumps. 2. Heat a pot on high heat and add oil. I use peanut oil because it has a high smoke point. 3. Once the oil is hot, dip your mold into the oil and let it get hot. If the mold is not hot, the batter will not stick to the mold. 4. Dip the mold into the batter (dip it almost to the top, but be careful not to go to the top). Shake it lightly to remove excess batter. 5. Dip the mold into the hot oil and then lightly shake/wiggle the handle. The batter will loosen and fall into the oil. 6. Cook the cookie for only a few seconds and then remove onto a plate. 7. To shape the flower, take a small bowl and place it upside down on a plate. Then place the flower on top of it to make it curve. 8. The cookie is ready to eat when it has cooled.

Gather up scraps and repeat with remaining dough.

• Combine icing sugar with water. Brush a thin coating of glaze over cookies. Allow to dry for 10 minutes. Divide remaining glaze into small containers. If you run out just make a bit more. Add different food coloring to each container. Using a small paint brush, paint each cookie anyway you like it.
