Eggless Bournvita Cookies

Bournvita has good childhood memories for a lot of us, but I never liked milk when I was younger and hated bournvita in my milk. I recently bought tiny bournvita sachets from India on my last trip, thinking I would start drinking milk but as expected I just could not continue. So I decided to try some new recipes, and if these are not so unhealthy, then why not?
