Instructions
  1. Sieve the flour/maida.
  2. Leave the butter out on the counter till it is soft. Do not melt it. We need the butter soft, but not melted. The key is to use soft butter and not melted one.
  3. In a big mixing bowl- take Softened butter and Powdered Sugar. Blend it with the help of a double beater till light and creamy. It takes approx. 2-5 minutes.
  4. Now add Vanilla essence + Cardamom powder + Tutti frutti/ Candied fruits.
  5. Mix it well with the help of beater.
  6. Now slowly add the flour and mix it with the help of your fingers. Incorporate the butter into the flour.

  11. Cut it into slices about half-inch thick
