  • For the almond powder,I coarsely blend the silvered almonds in a blender.If you want you can use the store bought almond powder.
  • Don't melt the butter in the flame for a long time,it should not become ghee.
  • Instead of vanilla,cardamon powder can also be used.
  • Initially the dough may be crumbly while mixing, it will be like a dough its kneaded.If its too dry then add couple of tsp of milk and mix it well.
