I made these cookies for a birthday; the theme was the Legend of Zelda video game. I use flour regularly sold in every supermarket in Chile is all-purpose flour roasted.
Usually, we sprinkle this flour on top of watermelon during the summer or mix it with milk to create a drink called Ulpo, a little like the Mexican atole. These cookies are very crisp.

Is there a way to DIY this toasted flour? I’ve never been able to find it in the USA
Yes, toast the flour on a non-stick skillet, a little to cover the bottom, and slow. It’s not the same, but it’s something.
