I'm on a bit of a baking spree, last week I decided I was craving cookies and so this is the result. Big fat chewy cookies that were crunchy on the bottom yet still soft and crumbly. I don't have much of a sweet tooth to be honest and these were actually a little too sugary for my taste, so next time I'm going to cut out half the sugar and the chocolate (please don't crucify me when I tell you I'm not a fan of chocolate). For everyone else, these rules should not apply. Original recipe from here.
Ingredients
- 180 g butter
- 1/3 cup caster sugar
- 395 g sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 cups self raising flour
- 250 g dark chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat oven to 180°C
- Beat butter and sugar until creamy, then beat in sweetened condensed milk
- Stir in flour, then dark chocolate chips, mix well
- Roll heaped tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls, place on oven trays and press down gently
- Bake for 15 minutes until golden
I failed to space my cookies apart enough, not anticipating how much they'd rise and they ended up squashing up to each other in the oven, resulting in some straight edges. Nevertheless, still d. Cookies and cold milk, how perfect.
omg your cookies look amaaaaazing!
ReplyDeletethe first photo looks gorgeous...I like :D
ReplyDeleteI am also from Sydney ;)
These looks like the perfect soft batch cookies, perfect dipped in a glass of milk. I won't crucify you for not liking chocolate ;)

ReplyDeleteFabulous recipe - thanks for sharing! My 14 year old daughter just made some and they are delicious. We have linked back to you!
ReplyDeleteMade some last night but with less chips... AMAZING!!! I'm in absolute love with them!!! :) I got nearly four dozen out of my batch! So happy!
ReplyDeleteHere is the recipe converted for Americans to follow in case anyone's interested. :) My Mom back home wanted the recipe and was lost when I showed her this so I thought maybe others might benefit from the other measurements.
ReplyDelete-butter
180 g = 6.34 oz
OR 1 1/2 stick of butter
-condensed milk
395 g = 13.93 oz
OR one can of condensed sweet milk (what I used)
-chocolate chips
250 g = 8.81 oz
OR just use what suits you...
less tastes best I think.
-1 1/2 cups self raising flour = same
-1/3 cup caster sugar = same
Oven Temperature
180c = 356f
Thank you!
DeleteThank you Bonny! For the conversion as well :)

ReplyDeleteloved this recipe first time I made perfect cookies
ReplyDeleteOMGGGGGGGGGGGG THESE ARE MY ABSOULTE FAVOURITE COOKIE NOW!
ReplyDeleteThese are a big hit at all the parties I've made them. A hit with the kids and the big kids! They also make alot so it is great to make these.
ReplyDeleteJust tried to make these with soya condenced milk and gluten-free flour. You need a lot more flour, but still taste good.
ReplyDeleteBeen looking for a good condensed milk cookie recipe for a while, yours look perfect (by which I mean it uses marginally less butter than others!). Love the look of your blog by the way, always enjoy finding blogs from other Sydneysiders.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to try them!
