How To Make winter cat cookies
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
-
Step 2Chop walnuts extremely finely.
-
Step 3In a microwave or double-boiler, melt chocolate chips, condensed milk, and 1 tablespoon butter, mixing occasionally, until well mixed to a chocolate frosting consistency.
-
Step 4Add nuts, mix, and cool.
-
Step 5In a separate bowl, cream the rest of the butter with the brown sugar, then add the vanilla extract, flour, and salt. The dough should be rather crumbly. If necessary, add the milk or water to make it hold better.
-
Step 6Divide the dough into three equal parts.
-
Step 7Roll out onto waxed paper or plastic wrap, making a rectangle two to three times as long as it is wide. You may chill the dough if it makes it easier to work with.
-
Step 8Spread a third of the chocolate mixture onto each dough section, and roll into a jellyroll shape.
-
Step 9Bake at 350F for approximately 30 minutes, until light brown.
-
Step 10Cool. Slice each log into slices between 1/2" and 1" in thickness.
-
Step 11Notes : If you want to keep them longer, don't slice the log until ready to serve.
