A cookie variety inspired by traditional Turkish sweets, bringing the distinctive, lightly resinous aroma of mastic gum together with plain buttery dough. With its finely chewable texture, it adds a different scent to classic cookies.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the mastic

5 min

Pound the mastic gum together with a few drops of powdered sugar in a mortar until it turns into a fine powder.

2

Prepare the dough

6 min

Beat the butter with the sugar, then add the egg and vanilla.

3

Add the mastic

7 min

Sift in the flour, baking powder, and the pounded mastic, and knead.

4

Shape and cook

14 min

Arrange into small balls on a tray and bake in a preheated oven until the edges are lightly colored.

Reminder

Allergen: contains wheat (gluten), egg and dairy products. Important: Be sure to use mastic (damla sakızı) finely ground into powder; unground pieces won't melt while baking and can stick to your teeth.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Chilling the mastic in the freezer for a few minutes before crushing it firms it up and helps it grind into powder more easily in the mortar.
