# What You'll Need:
→ Core Ingredients
01 -
1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk
02 -
3 teaspoons of baking powder
03 -
2 cups of all-purpose flour
04 -
1 cup of room-temperature butter, softened
05 -
1/2 cup of powdered sugar for sprinkling
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
In a bowl, whip the butter for about 3 minutes until it's fluffy and airy.
02 -
Slowly add the sweetened condensed milk while whipping. Blend for 2 minutes or until everything comes together smoothly. Want to add extract for flavoring? Now’s the time—up to 2 teaspoons.
03 -
Pause to scrape the bowl’s sides, ensuring nothing’s left behind. Then whip everything for another minute or two until super smooth.
04 -
Mix in the flour and baking powder with the butter mixture. Stir just enough for it to combine. Feel like adding extras? This is where you can toss in up to 1 cup of goodies like dried fruit or chocolate chips.
05 -
Scoop out equal amounts of dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave a couple of inches between each one.
06 -
Pop the tray into a 320°F (160°C) oven. Bake for about 12 minutes or until the cookies are just right.
07 -
Once baked, let the cookies sit on the tray for 5 minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack and, while warm, sprinkle a generous layer of powdered sugar. Wait for them to cool entirely before packing them away.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Feel free to use up to 2 teaspoons of your favorite extract flavor.
02 -
Mix-ins like chocolate chips or dried fruits (up to 1 cup) can be added for variety.
