Ingredients

Quantity
Refined flour
225gms
Sugar
225gms
Egg yolks
2
Egg white
1
Thick coconut milk
300ml
Cinnamon powder
1 tsp
Clove powder
1 tsp
Salt
a pinch


Mix the flour and sugar together. Add the egg yolks (well beaten) and the coconut milk by degrees to obtain the consistency of thick pancake batter. Add cinnamon, cloves and salt. Mix well together. Set aside for half an hour. Beat the egg white and mix in well with the butter. Heat the ijzer mould. Rub over with a little butter or ghee. Pour a dessertspoonful of the batter on to one side of the mould. Close and place over a hot fire. When kookej is browned on one side, turn ijzer and cook second side. As soon as koekje is taken out roll round a pencil. As it cools it will slip off. Put into an air-tight tin straight away.
