How to make the Cookies
- Preparing the Dough

- Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving a little space between them.
- Repeat this process with the rest of the dough.
- In a bowl, beat one egg with the milk and brush the cookies with the mixture.
- Preheat your oven to 180ยฐC (350ยฐF) and bake the cookies for about 20 minutes on the middle rack (using the top and bottom heating elements).
