This is one of "those" recipes. You know the ones I am referring to, the ones you cut out of a magazine and then store away to make when the opportunity arises. For weeks, months and (unfortunately!) in some cases years, the page serves as nothing more than an inconvenient reminder that you haven't made the recipe yet. Then it starts to breed and is joined by others! And before you know it you can't close the third draw down because of all "those" recipes!!
50g butter, plus extra for greasing
200g good quality dark chocolate (minimum 50% cocoa solids)
397g can condensed milk (I used a non branded variety for ethical reasons, worked a treat!)
225g SR flour
65g milk or white chocolate buttons
Lightly grease 3 baking trays. Break up the chocolate and gently melt it along with the butter in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally. Stir in the condensed milk, then take off the heat to cool.
Mix in the flour and chocolate buttons and chill the mixture until firm enough to handle. Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160C. Place large teaspoonfuls of the mixture, spread well apart, on the prepared baking trays. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 mins. The cookies should still look soft and will glisten. Don't over cook them as they soon become very hard. Carefully remove the cookies with a palette knife and cool on a wire rack.
Makes about 35 cookies
Delicious Magazine (don't ask me from when!)
OMG!!!! This is one recipe I should have just made straight away! A-Mazing! They got rave reviews from everyone
The only down side to these cookies is the gym time required to burn them back off again. Spin class here I come ;0(
