For karachi biscuit

- Add the tutti frutti, rose essence and cashewnuts and mix well.
- Add the plain flour-custard powder mix and knead into a soft dough using milk.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal portions and shape each portion into 183 mm. (7½”) lengthwise and 50 mm. (2”) widthwise cylindrical roll and wrap them tightly individually in cling wrap.
- Lightly press each roll from 4 sides to get a uniform cuboid shape.
- Refrigerate the dough for 1 hour.
- Open the cling wrap and cut each roll into 15 pieces of approx. ½" thickness with the help of a sharp knife.
- Arrange the biscuits on a baking tray and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180°c (360°f) for 30 to 35 minutes.
- Cool the karachi biscuits completely and serve or store in an air tight container.
