Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180 °C and line a baking sheet with parchment. Cream the butter and sugar, then beat in the eggs one at a time.

2. 2

   Mix the flour with the baking powder and fold it into the butter mixture alternating with the milk, until you have a thick batter that drops slowly from the spoon.

3. 3

   Using two spoons, place twelve rounded mounds well apart on the sheet and smooth them lightly. Bake for about 15 minutes until the edges are set but the centres stay pale.

4. 4

   Let the cookies cool completely. Stir the powdered sugar with 2 to 3 tablespoons of water into a thick glaze and melt the chocolate separately over a water bath.

5. 5

   Brush the flat underside of each cookie with the sugar glaze and, if you like, dip one half into the melted chocolate. Let set firm.
