Condensed milk - creates the magic for the taste

I love recipes based on condensed milk. It gives an amazing flavor to any recipe. This cashew square is all about condensed milk and cashew flavor😊 if you are looking for sweets with minimal ingredients these cashew squares are perfect. Condensed milk gives richness and sweetness to the cashew bite.

Can I make these cashew squares into cashew shortbread cookies?

As I mentioned in the chocolate chip cookie, you can easily convert the squares into cookies. Drop a tablespoon of batter on a greased cookie sheet and bake them for 10 -12 mins until they turn slightly turn brown at the botton. The cookie will be a little firm on the outside and softer in the center.

How to get firm shortbread-like cashew squares?

I have used an 8* 8 square pan for baking. For this quantity, it gives soft cashew squares. If you prefer shortbread cashew squares use a bigger pan. I have tried baking shortbread square with half of the mentioned quantity in the 8*8 square pan and it was towards the cookie texture. Alternatively, you can also spoon the batter for cookie

Can I use Whole wheat flour?

You can use wheat flour but the taste might slightly vary.
