If you’re looking for a simple and delicious cookie recipe to enjoy with your tea, the Milk Cookies recipe from the Sweet Baking Recipes YouTube channel is a must-try. These cookies are soft, tender, slightly crumbly, and made with basic ingredients you likely already have in your kitchen. The recipe is quick to follow and perfect for beginners or anyone who enjoys homemade baked goods without the need for complex steps.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 100g unsalted butter (softened)
- 60g powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 120g all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- A pinch of salt (optional)
To prepare, you’ll start by creaming the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add the milk and mix gently. Sift in the flour and baking powder, and combine until you get a soft, smooth dough. Shape the dough into small balls, flatten slightly, and place on a baking tray. Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for about 12–15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Let them cool before serving.
What to Serve with Milk Cookies
These cookies are perfect for tea time but also go well with other drinks like hot chocolate, coffee, or warm milk. You can serve them alongside fruit jams, a slice of cheese, or even dip them in melted chocolate for an extra treat. They also make a great addition to a light breakfast tray or an afternoon snack plate.
