Polvoróns for you? Not from Goldilocks though ;-)
Aunty Yochana posted this recipe and it was on my To-Do list for the longest time. I finally found time to make it last week. The plus point about this recipe is, no baking needed and it is so simple! All you need is a pan/wok to cook the flour (I cooked mine in the microwave though).

With no baking/cooking, I was skeptical if I could still taste the sugar in bits so I replaced it with icing sugar (reduced amount). My children do not drink any formula milk and DD3 is still on the best milk in the world, thus I substituted milk powder with Horlicks.
I started off with my disney cookie cutter but I find it rather time consuming so I switched and use my pineapple tart mould instead. I did this in a hurry as it was about time to fetch DS2 from school and that explains the rough edges :P
All the children in the family love this, including my niece and nephew, but not for me :P Will I make this again? Only if the kids ask for it.

Ingredients
1 cup Plain flour1/2 cup Milk Powder (I used Horlicks)
85g butter, melted
25g icing sugar
Method
- Pour plain flour into a microwaveable plate/container. Set to low heat (I used 30%) and cook for 5 - 6 minutes (stirring 2 - 3 times in between) till flour turns light brown and cooked. Sieve flour into a mixing and let it cool.
- Mix in the rest of the ingredients and mix thoroughly.
- Press into a polvoron plunger and push it out. If you do not have a plunger, a small cake ring/cookie cutter/tart mould work as well.
- Chill it till harden before wrapping.
- Leave at room temperature before serving.

Sonia, I think this is very much a kids' cookie.
Lady Ren, this is my first time making a non-bake cookie, it was quite fun.
MaryMoh, this is so simple I think my kids will enjoy making them too.
My Little Space, I don't like quite it but the kids love it so I think it tasted alright hahaha
Anncoo, I think it tasted more like shortbread than cookies, has a melt-in-your-mouth kind of texture, a bit crumbly though.
Wendy, I was as silly as you ;-)
I don't know what are Polvorons. Are they some kind of pastry crust?
Happy Easter Day! I've an award for you, please come and pick it up when you're free.

Hi Anony,
