Ragi Cookies

These Ragi-butter cookies are melt-in-mouth. Goes very well with a cup of coffee or tea. Dry fruits just adds an extra crunch to these cookies.

My husband bought a packet of sprouted ragi thinking my toddler will eat Ragi halwa like he used to eat when he was 6months old. Well, that little boy clearly refused to eat Ragi halwa when I cooked.

I was looking for kids friendly recipe to use that packet. Ragi butter cookies was the best option I could think of.

Next time I will try to replace the refined sugar with jaggery to make it healthy. Meanwhile, enjoy these cookies.
