Almond Nan Khatai/Desi Shortbread Cookies Recipe

Recipe By Better Butter

Nankhatai are shortbread biscuits popular in india and pakistan. The word nankhatai is derived from the persian word naan meaning bread and khatai an afghan word meaning biscuit. These biscuits are bursting with flavors of butter and almonds, they are unbelievably crispy and flaky. These serve as perfect accompaniment for tea and great pass time snacks during journeys. These tend to have a real long shelf life, that might last up to a month easily when stored in airtight containers. So what else could be a better snack to make and store than this?.
