Tutti Frutti Cookies are one variation of the umpteen types of cookies that one could bake at home. What makes this special is the rare pairing of tutti frutti with cookies. Tutti frutti is usually used as a topping for desserts like ice cream and falooda, or even in icing of cakes. But it isn't very often that it is baked in items like cookies. The closest comparison to this is the Karachi Bakery's iconic biscuits, which are now sold across the world.

This recipe gives you the option to make almost any kind of cookie, as there are many substitutions you can make to bake chocolate chip cookies or even a dry fruit version. This recipe is from Sujani Nagarajah, hope you try it at home!
