Horlicks Cookies

My second cookies for Chinese New Year
This was really popular some years ago, but I didn't get the chance to bake it. Until now :)

Too lazy to make all in dog shape haha.. and my little dogs have flattened heads with big nose, some of them with no nose LOL

 

 

Recipe is from Sonia of Nasi Lemak Lover

What you need:

250g butter
120g Horlicks
40g corn flour
40g milk powder
250g cake flour
30g caster sugar*
1 egg yolk

Method:

1. Beat butter and sugar til creamy. Add in egg yolk, mix til just combined
2. Add in sifted corn flour, milk powder and cake flour, mix til just combined (do not overmix)
3. Shape 1 tsp dough into ball
4. If making the dog shape, decorate each ball with: KokoKrunch (ears), chocolate chips (nose), chocolate rice (eyes). Otherwise, just press in 1 chocolate chip in the centre of the ball
5. Bake in preheated oven of 150degC for 25-30mins depending on your oven

*If not making dog shape, it's advisable to increase the amount of caster sugar used to 45g. Without the Koko Krunch I found it not sweet enough

Nice and crunchy :)
