Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together till light and creamy. Beat in condensed milk, on high speed for 2 minutes.
2. In a separate bowl, sift together flour and baking powder. Add the flour into the butter mixture in 3 parts, beating on low speed till just combined.
3. Mix in chocolate chips with a spatula, till evenly distributed through dough. Refrigerate dough for half an hour.
4. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Line two baking trays. Roll cookie dough into 2 cm diameter balls, spacing roughly 2 cm apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or till just slightly brown on the edges.
5. Cool for 5 minutes on the tray, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

The chocolate chips can be replaced with other additions of your liking. Check my blog for the various ingredients I’ve tried.
