ganja containing nankhatai
material:
1 quarter cup all purpose flour (175 grams)
2 tbsp positive rava (semolina) 25 grams
1 tbsp hemp flour
cup powdered sugar (80 grams)
cup ghee (115 grams)
half teaspoon salt
tsp cardamom powder
2 tbsp chopped pistachios or dry fruits of your choice
1 tbsp Hemp Hearts
process:
Sift flour in a bowl. Keep it separate.
Whisk the ghee and sugar in a bowl with a spoon or until creamy, soft and pale yellow.
Add refined flour, hemp flour, semolina, salt and cardamom powder to the ghee-sugar mixture.
Mix everything together using a spatula, then use your palms to move the dough together. Do not knead the dough.
If the dough looks dry, then add a small spoon of ghee to it and keep stirring it slowly till the dough comes together.
Keep the dough in the fridge and keep it for less than half an hour.
Mixing Ghee and Flour in Nankhatai Dough
Pinch off a lime-sized portion of the dough. Roll it between your palms into a smooth circular shape. Flatten them hard.
Place it on a baking tray covered with parchment paper.
Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
Space them 1 inch apart as they can widen when baked.
Using a knife, make a criss-cross sample within the center. You can also do a little indentation within the heart instead of criss-cross sampling.
Refrigerate once more for another quarter hour.
Preheat your oven to 190°C.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 16 minutes. It may take you more or less time. Keep an eye out after 13 minutes.
Sprinkle some chopped pistachios and rose petals and hemp hearts
Note: Cookies may be smooth in the middle but will crumble as they cool.
