How to Make Mushroom Cookies Mantar Kurabiye

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg yolk until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, all-purpose flour, and cocoa powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Roll the dough into small balls (about ¾ inch in diameter).
  6. To create the mushroom shape, gently flatten each ball slightly with your fingers. Use the back of a teaspoon or small knife to create a slight indentation in the center of each cookie, resembling a mushroom cap.
  7. Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
