Milk cookies are an excellent choice for those looking for a quick and simple dessert, perfect for a snack or to be enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffee. These cookies are fluffy, have a delicate flavor, and can be customized with various ingredients. Let the culinary adventure begin!

Necessary ingredients:
- 100 g unsalted butter (melted)
- 200 ml warm milk
- 100 g sugar
- 300 g flour
- 1 packet baking powder (approx. 10 g)
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

To add a personal touch, you can also include 50 g chopped nuts or dark chocolate cut into cubes.

Step-by-step instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Start by preheating the oven to 180 °C. This step is essential to ensure even baking of the cookies.

2. Mixing wet ingredients: In a large bowl, pour the melted butter and warm milk. Mix well with a spatula or whisk. Adding the sugar will create a sweet base, and the vanilla, if you choose to use it, will add an inviting aroma.

3. Incorporating dry ingredients: In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. The latter will enhance the flavor of the cookies. Begin to add the flour mixture to the bowl with the wet ingredients, one portion at a time, mixing constantly to avoid lumps. It is important that the mixer is on a low speed to avoid overworking the dough.

4. Forming the dough: Once you have a homogeneous dough, let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This resting time will allow the ingredients to blend perfectly.

5. Shaping the cookies: Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, form balls of dough and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving space between them, as the cookies will spread while baking.

6. Baking: Place the tray in the preheated oven and let the cookies bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they turn golden at the edges. It is important not to leave them too long, as they risk becoming too dry.

7. Cooling and serving: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. They are delicious both warm and cooled. You can serve them with jam, honey, or plain, to enjoy their natural flavor.

Useful tips:
- Make sure the butter is not too hot when adding it to the milk mixture, to avoid curdling the milk.
- You can experiment with various flavors, such as cinnamon or lemon zest, to add a personal twist to your recipe.
- The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days.

This quick dessert is ideal for any occasion and will surely become a family favorite. Enjoy every bite of these fluffy and flavorful milk cookies!
