This was a great recipe for me to try for our at-work cookie exchange. I haven't had much succees in baking cookies lately. Everyone loved these and no baking required; HOWEVER, there is a mistake in your recipe. Perhaps this is a typo: 1/4 cup of sweetened condensed milk should be 1/2 cup. Please make note of that. The dough is too sandy if 1/4 cup is used, but just perfect when 1/2 cup is used.
