FAQ (Questions and Answers) Soft MANDARIN COOKIES
Can I use another citrus fruit instead of mandarin?
Yes, you can substitute mandarin with orange, lemon, or lime, depending on your tastes. Each citrus fruit will give a slightly different aroma and flavor to the cookies, but the result will still be delicious.
How can I store the soft mandarin cookies?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days. To keep them soft, you can add a small piece of apple to the container to prevent them from drying out.
Can they be made gluten-free or lactose-free?
Absolutely! For a gluten-free version, you can use suitable flours like almond flour or a gluten-free flour mix. For a lactose-free version, replace the butter with coconut oil.
