Kiwi Biscuits
Here
is our favorite new cookie recipe from New Zealand. These cookies
are light and reminiscent of shortbread…but better! This recipe comes
from
the kitchen of Megan Carmichael, Whitianga, New Zealand.
100 gr. (1/4 - 1/2 cup) softened
butter
1/4 cup white sugar
2 Tbs. Sweetened condensed milk
1 Tbs. Baking powder
1 cup flour
3/4 cup chocolate chips*
Combine
butter and sugar until creamy. Add milk, and stir. Add baking powder
and flour and combine until just mixed. Add chocolate chips and mix all
together.
Roll dough into balls (golfball size or smaller) and place on an ungreased
cookie
sheet. Press down with fork tines. Bake in a moderate over at 350 and
remove
when the bottoms become golden brown. Makes approximately 14-16 cookies.
*In New
Zealand, chocolate chips are more like tiny bits of chocolate, much smaller
than the American formed 'chip'. If using this recipe with standard chips,
chop them
up before using. Also, chips can be substituted with raisins or half &
half of each.
