Notes
You can use organic powdered jaggery directly without melting. Since I used normal one, I melted and filtered to remove impurities
Baking time will differ depending on oven as well as thickness of cookies. So always keep an eye after 15 minutes
Cookies always looks soft while taking out and later becomes firm
If the mixture is too dry add few tablespoon of water to make the dough. If it is too sticky can add one tbsp of flour extra while making dough.
