Ingredients
To make these soft cookies you only need a few simple ingredients that together create a quick dough perfect to work directly in a bowl.
- 1 egg
- 5 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/3 cup sunflower oil
- Half packet baking powder
- flavorings (to taste)
- 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour ("00" flour equivalent)
- powdered sugar (as needed)
- milk (as needed)
- chocolate shavings (as needed)
Steps
The preparation is lightning-fast: in a few minutes you’ll have soft, indulgent cookies ready to bake.
Prepare the dough in a bowl: In a bowl, add the egg and sugar and begin to mix, then add the oil and milk and the flavorings you chose (I used vanilla). Next add the baking powder and finally the sifted flour, a little at a time because you may not need it all — this depends on the size of the egg. You should obtain a consistency similar to a simple bundt cake batter.
Spoon and bake: Spoon dollops of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them well apart. Decide the size yourself — mine are large. Bake the cookies at 356°F (180°C) for about 15 minutes, but adjust according to your oven. Once baked, let them cool.
Prepare the glaze: Put the powdered sugar in a bowl and add the milk little by little. You want a thick but workable glaze. If it’s too thin, add more powdered sugar; if it’s too thick, add a little more milk. Pour the glaze over the cookies and decorate with chocolate shavings.

TIPS..
You can also use almond or coconut milk. If you don’t like the glaze, just dust the cookies with powdered sugar or cocoa. To make them even more indulgent, add chocolate chips to the dough.
