Homemade Ladyfinger Biscuits

First, you have to separate the egg yolks from the whites. Carefully do this process.

Now add 1 tbsp sugar at a time and whisk the egg whites. Here I am adding 4 to 5 tbsp sugar. Whisk it for 10 to 12 minutes until it holds the shape. Whipped egg whites have to hold the shape like this.

Now add sugar and vanilla to the yolk. Whisk it until it turns light yellow. Here I added 3 tbsp sugar. After that add the yolks to the whipped whites.

Add baking powder and flour. Add some cornstarch. Mix it with light hands. The batter is ready. Pour the batter into a piping bag.

Take a baking tray, and grease it with some oil. Now pipe the batter like this. Dust some icing/powdered sugar. Bake them for 15 to 20 minutes at 180 or 190 degrees Celsius.
