Ingredients
  

  • 8 tbsp. salted butter softened
  • 1/2 C. + 2 tbsp. sweetened condensed milk
  •  C. cornstarch

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350˚F/ 177˚C.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the condensed milk and butter until combined.
  • Slowly stir in the cornstarch to the condensed milk and butter mixture. When a dough begins to form use your hands to knead in the remaining cornstarch until it forms a smooth dough. You might not use all of the cornstarch.
  • Measure 1½ tsp. of dough and roll into a ball. Place onto a parchment lined baking sheet spaced 1" apart.
  • Create a striped pattern by pressing the tines of a fork into the dough balls.
  • Bake for 13-15 minutes or until the edges of cookies barely turn golden. The cookies should remain pale.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a rack to finish cooling. Serve with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate.
