NanKhatai(Eggless Cookie)
I make this nankhatai three ways. First recipe, I use wheat flour(genhu atta-chapati atta), good for kids. Second recipe, I use plain flour(maida-all purpose flour). Third recipes, I combine wheat and plain flours. Either way, you make this recipe, result is great.

In another bowl mix all dry ingredients.
Now Add dry mixture to the beaten sugar and butter mixture.
Mix everything well and foam like dough.
Preheat oven at 350F degrees
Make small golf size balls and place on cookie baking tray
When done place the baking tray into the preheated oven.
Let it bake about 12-15mins at 350 degrees.
After 10-12 mins, bring oven tempreture to the lowest 170F.
Bake another about 10-12mins so that naan khatai cooks well inside out
After 10-12mins, turn off the oven but do not take out the tray yet. Keep another 20-25 mins inside oven.
Take out tray after 20mins or so and let it cool about 10mins.
Naan Khatai is ready to eat.
