Steps:
- To prepare this traditional koulourakia recipe, start by mixing the butter and sugar. In a mixer's bowl add the sugar and butter (chopped) and mix for about 10-15 minutes, until the butter is creamy and fluffy. (Once starting to prepare this koulourakia recipe, make sure that the butter is at room temperature).
- In the meantime warm the milk until lukewarm and remove the pot from the heat. Add the ammonia and whisk until fully dissolved. Set aside.
- , whilst mixing, allowing time for each one to be absorbed, before adding another. Pour in the the vanilla extract, the orange zest and the milk & ammonia blend and mix to combine. Add the flour, a little bit at a time, whilst mixing, until the ingredients are combined and the dough is soft and not too sticky.
- Cover the dough for the koulourakia with some plastic wrap and set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
- Place the dough for the koulourakia on a clean working surface, take a small piece of dough and form long cords. Shape the koulourakia with your hands, giving them any shape you like.
- Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and place the koulourakia, leaving some distance between them as they will rise a lot when baked. For this koulourakia recipe, you will need approx. 4-5 large baking trays, depending on the size of the cookies you make.
- In a small bowl add the egg yolks and 1 tbsp water and whisk with a fork. Brush the top of the koulourakia and bake in preheated oven at 200C/400F fan for 15-20 minutes, until fully cooked and golden brown on the outside (or the ammonia would not have been fully used up).
- Let the koulourakia cool down completely on a cooling rack and store in airtight containers for up to three weeks.

- Put the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl and using a hand held beater, beat till creamy. Add the eggs one at time and beat till mixed well. Then add the milk, cream, and vanilla and beat again till mixed well.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and add it to the mixing bowl in two lots. Using a wooden spoon, mix in the flour and then knead the dough using your fingers until you have dough that is soft and smooth.
- Add a little more flour (or a little less in the first place), if you need it. Remember the dough should be a little sticky to touch and too much of flour will not give the desired texture of cookies.
- Let the dough rest, covered, at room temperature for about half an hour. To shape the cookies, pinch off 1-inch balls of dough for each cookie. Very lightly dust your working surface if you feel you need that to help you roll out the dough better. Ideally the consistency of the dough should be enough to easily roll it out into "ropes".
