Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (about 190 grams)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
- Soften the butter if you haven’t already. It should be pliable but not melted — room temperature for about 30 minutes usually does the trick.
- In your mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and condensed milk. Use an electric mixer on medium speed or a wooden spoon to blend them until smooth, creamy, and well incorporated, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour, stirring gently but thoroughly until the dough comes together into a sticky ball that’s soft but holds its shape. Add a little more flour if too wet, but avoid overdoing it.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop small mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges turn light golden brown and centers remain soft. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
Do not overmix after adding flour to avoid tough cookies. Use softened, not melted butter. Watch baking time closely to keep cookies chewy. If dough is too sticky, chill for 15-20 minutes before scooping. Optional additions include vanilla extract, salt, chocolate chips, or nuts.
