Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup chocolate sprinkles for rolling

Preparation

  • 1.

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  • 2.

    In a bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside.

  • 3.

    In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  • 4.

    Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well until combined.

  • 5.

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sweetened condensed milk. Mix until everything is incorporated and forms a dough.

  • 6.

    Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes for easier handling.

  • 7.

    Once chilled, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls.

  • 8.

    Roll each ball in chocolate sprinkles until well-coated.

  • 9.

    Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  • 10.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set (the cookies will still be soft in the center).

  • 11.

    Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
