Recipe adapted from Happy Home Baking
180g butter, soften at room temperature
80g Horlicks
200g top flour/ cake flour/ low protein flour/ HK flour
25g cornflour
25g milk powder
100g chocolate chips - lesser should be ok cos can't finish so much
some chocolate rice
some Koko Krunch
Method
- Preheat oven to 140C (note: conventional oven mode). Line baking tray with baking paper and set aside.
- Sieve top flour, cornflour and milk powder.
- Cream butter and Horlicks for about 3 minutes at low speed (I use 'speed 1' for Kenwood hand mixer for 2 minutes). Don't overbeat.
- Put in top flour, cornflour and milk powder and beat for about 1 minute to form dough (note: cookie crumbles).
- Divide dough into 10g each. Put 3 chocolate chips into each piece of dough and roll into balls (note: I put 4 chocolate chips).
- Insert 2 pieces of Koko Krunch to form the "ears", 2 chocolate rice for "eyes", 1 chocolate chip for "nose".
- Bake at 140C for about 25 minutes. 5 to 10 minutes more depending on the oven. (note: I bake for 25 minutes for the conventional mode)
- Leave to cool on the wire rack before storing.
