biscoito de maizena

Cornstarch cookies (Biscoito de Maizena)

(197 g) sweetened condensed milk

+ 1 1/2 tablespoons (250 g) cornstarch

Preheat the oven to 355 degrees F/180 degrees C. Prepare two baking sheets lined with parchment paper and set them aside.

In a large bowl, place the softened butter and condensed milk and beat with an electric mixer. Slowly add cornstarch, a little bit at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon, then continue mixing with your hands. Knead the cookie dough well until smooth and homogeneous.

Extra tip

if desired, transfer the dough to a pastry bag fitted with a pastry tip and pipe the rose-looking cookies. Experiment with different tips and shapes, but you will probably need some skill since the dough is quite hard.

Bake cookies on top of your oven for 10 minutes. They are ready once the bottom of the cookies becomes slightly golden. Wait to cool sweet treats on a wire rack and serve.
