How to make CONDENSED MILK COOKIES:

• Mix the soft butter with the condensed milk until you get a fine cream.
• Add the flour, salt, and vanilla and mix.
• You will get a slightly sticky composition, but not very soft.
• Cover the dough with cling film and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to medium heat.
• Remove the dough from the refrigerator and break off walnut-sized pieces (or smaller).
• Form the dough into balls and place them on a tray lined with baking paper.
• Bake for 15-16 minutes, until lightly browned on the sides.
• Remove and place on a cooling rack to cool.
• For decoration, melt the chocolate in a bain marie with a teaspoon of vegetable oil.
• When the icing is homogeneous, take it off the heat.
• Dip the top of the cookies in the chocolate then put them aside, leaving space between them.
• Sprinkle over the almond flakes or dried fruit and let the icing harden.
• When the icing is hardened, transfer the cookies to an airtight tin, where they will keep for up to a month.
• They are soft and delicious, very simple to make, and go great with a cup of coffee.
