FAQs
1. Can I substitute the Milo?
Yes! Try using other chocolate malt powder or even cocoa powder for a slightly different flavor profile. The taste will be altered, but still delicious.
2. How can I make the cookies crispier?
Ensure your oven is preheated properly and bake for the full recommended time. Slightly underbaking will result in softer cookies. Let them cool completely on a wire rack before dipping.
3. What kind of cheese should I use?
A sharp cheddar or a similar firm, easily grated cheese works best. Avoid very soft cheeses as they may make the dough too wet.
These crispy cheese cookies dipped in Milo sauce are a delightful treat that effortlessly blends savory and sweet. The simple recipe and incredible flavor combination make them perfect for baking with family or enjoying as a special after-dinner indulgence.
