Cardamom Cookie – Low-Sugar (Cake Soft)

Cardamom cookie is great with melted chocolate vibes. And since these are healthy-ish with cardamom and olive oil, you can make these cake soft cookies anytime.

The chocolate and a hint of vanilla with cardamom make a great combo for a warm festive cooke. They just need a mug and warm beverage to dunk in.

This reminds me of a vanilla wafer soft cookie or the Italian dipped cookies. You can make these S-shaped cookies that look like a G clef symbol or Gruppetto on a music sheet.

It’s classic on a cookie, just like classical music sheets.

…I don’t read music, but I appreciate everything about music when I hear tunes 🎼

Or if you’re into beauty, you can make cookies like unique railing curves in historical homes. They don’t have to be cookie cutter.

And whatever shape you make these, you’ll hopefully get a nice hump rise. And this has become my new favorite cookie (I say that about most yummy cookies in front of me!).

You’ll want to pipe the cookies as the batter will be a little sticky (or elastic). So cookie cutters are not needed. And you can decide if you want make them each unique shape or a specific cookie cutter shape.

And how these are different than most cookies is the cake flour. You want to be sure to not mix too much as you’re not trying to build gluten (like for bread). And that gives the softer bite.

And actually if you pipe the batter through a pastry bag with a larger tip, you’ll get a better result. It’s not always about the flour.

The reason they need to be piped and not smeared on a baking tray or through a cookie cutter, is so the air isn’t knocked out of them.

When it’s piped, you get a pouffy cookie.

You can pipe onto a sprayed cookie sheet (or Silpat on baking tray so they don’t stick).

After baked, you’ll see all the piping marks so each cardamom cookie can be unique. And swirly good. 🍥

Happy like a pouffy bubble skirt, and not an A-line one that’s flat to the surface (that can be good for other applications). 👗

That reminds me of my mom who was a dressmaker. She made me a pink bubble skirt that also made me happy. So puffy or pouffy is a good word in my book. And cookies.

And when the baked cookies have cooled down, they don’t deflate.

Then you can dip them in melted chocolate that’s best with a coconut oil method that’s foolproof every time! If you use refined oil, you won’t taste the coconut-y tastes if that’s what you’re after.

I think that’s a myth that people believe that it’ll turn into an easy low-sugar coconut cookie (that’s good for other tasty occasions!).

And the cardamom cookie belong on a holiday table of snacks.

And you can make cardamom tree cookies for a Jenga stack on a plate while you listen to Christmas music.
