“We’ve tried multiple version of these with skim-milk powder, Ovaltine, even Milo,” says Sweet Envy’s Alistair Wise. “But the malted-milk powder version is the best of them.”

Ingredients

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Combine sugar, flour, milk powder and a pinch of salt in a bowl, add butter and rub in with your fingertips until fine crumbs form. Add eggs and vanilla, and mix with a wooden spoon until smooth, then add cranberries and most of the chocolate chips, reserving some to add to the top of the cookies, and stir to combine.
2.Portion dough into balls the size of small ping-pong balls, roll in cocoa and place onto oven trays lined with baking paper, leaving 5cm space between each ball. Top with reserved chocolate and bake, a tray at a time, until golden (12 minutes). Remove from oven, cool briefly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Cookies will keep in an airtight container for a week.
