Notes
You can also bake them in a greased cake tin. In this case, baking will take some more minutes.

You can sprinkle some coconut over them before baking. This will give you a nice color and crunch.

You can add chopped nuts in place of cardamom or along with cardamom powder.

Based on your oven type and size, baking time will vary. So keep an eye after 12 - 15 min.
