Cookies from Dairy Dough
Question
Cookies from dairy dough, do they need to be made in an unusual shape as is the rule for dairy bread? (When not making a large quantity).
Answer
Shalom Rav
It is permissible to make them in large quantities without the need for a special shape.
This is because the sages only decreed this for bread, which is eaten with everything, and there is a concern that the dairy bread might be eaten with meat.
However, cookies and the like, which are not typically eaten with other foods, were not included in this decree.
