Improvements in the spring cookie box. I changed the size of sesame and almond cookie to 6*4.5cm to fit the cellphone bags and have a better look. The sugar level adjusted to 65% for sesame and 60% for almond to set the sweet tone of the cookie. Black sesame cookies was cut to 3 millimeter thick and almond cookies about 4 millimeters. I still have lots of irregular ones, but cutting skill improved a lot this time. To cut the cookie even and thin, the dough needs to be the neither too soft nor too hard. When I cut, I move my knife slowly with an even speed, never go too fast like chopping vegetables. It is important to have the same thickness for all cookies to assure the baking. Pay close attention to baking otherwise cookies get burnt.
