Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C) and prepare baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter on medium speed for about 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add in the sweetened condensed milk and beat until completely smooth and glossy.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry mix to the butter and condensed milk mixture, folding gently until just combined.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or in the freezer for 15 minutes for optimal shaping.
- Roll the chilled dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1 cm thickness.
- Cut out shapes using cookie cutters and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 1 inch apart.
- Bake the cookies for 5 to 8 minutes, keeping an eye on them until slightly firm but still soft in the center.
- Let the cookies cool on the tray for 2 to 3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
