MMMMmmmmm, these are a nummy little decadence that truly live up to their name. Kind of remind me of a nutmeg crisp cookie that I have posted but only because of the great taste of nutmeg that comes thru nicely in this cookie. A soft type cookie which I'm surprised about because normally when I add cream of tarter to a cookie, they come out more crisp. I"m going to make another batch of these so I can use up the rest of my can of sweetened condensed milk. I did use a low-fat version of the milk, just to make myself feel better:-) Oh and I followed your directions for the sugar amount by only using 3/4 cup. I believe that's plenty too. I chose to roll the dough into balls and flatten slightly b/f baking instead of rolling out and using cookie-cutters. Thanks for a great all around cookie Debi~ Made for HolidayTag.
