Preparation techniques

1. Preparing the ingredients: Start by gathering all the necessary ingredients and measuring them accurately. Make sure the eggs are at room temperature for better mixing. If you prefer a more intense vanilla flavor, you can add vanilla extract instead of vanilla sugar.

2. Beat the eggs with the sugar: In a large bowl, add the 4 eggs and 1 cup of sugar. Use an electric mixer to beat the eggs and sugar together for 3-5 minutes until the mixture becomes fluffy and light yellow. This step is essential for getting airy cookies.

3. Incorporating the oil and milk: Add the 2 packets of vanilla sugar and 1 cup of sunflower oil. Continue mixing, then add the 4 tablespoons of milk. Mix well until smooth.

4. Adding the dry ingredients: Start adding the 2 cups of flour gradually, mixing with a spatula or with the mixer on low speed. It is important not to overmix the batter, as this can lead to denser cookies. Finally, add the baking powder, which you can activate with a little lemon juice or vinegar.

5. Filling the molds: The batter should be soft but not liquid. Use a spoon to fill the cookie molds halfway. This is the time to add your chosen filling: chocolate chips, fruit, or preserves.

6. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the tray with the molds in the preheated oven and let them bake for 10 minutes. You will notice that the cookies puff up and take on a golden color, while the enticing aroma fills the entire room.

7. Cooling and serving: After the cookies are baked, remove the tray from the oven and let them cool in the molds for a few minutes, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely. These fluffy cookies are delicious both warm and cold.

Serving suggestions

For an extra touch of flavor, you can sprinkle powdered sugar on top of the cookies before serving. They can be accompanied by a cup of tea or coffee, or even creamy ice cream for a delicious contrast.

Possible variations

If you want to add a touch of originality, you can try adding spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter. You can also substitute sunflower oil with melted butter for a richer flavor.
