Hot and Cold

I need a quick fix of cookies and chocolate. But it's a bit hot today, and I don't want to melt in my kitchen. Plus, I want them without the hassles and could be done within 15 minutes. For that, I come to this. A real easy, guaranteed satisfaction *for me at least*, but had to wait for it to firm up. No biggie for me. I just need to be patient *tough!* 

Well, after counting every minute on the clock; here is the awaited freezer cookies! The recipe was given by a close friend of mine, Z, way back during my high school days. It has always been a crowd pleaser... ^_^ 

Usually, I don't measure the ingredients. I just used whatever I have, and adjusted the crackers to accommodate the chocolate mixture. 

The cookies look a little bit dry here cause I put in too much crackers. You could reduce the amount of crackers if you like it to have more chocolate. Nonetheless, these are still as good! 

Easy Freezer Cookies

• Cake pan /cookie sheet *lined with cling wrap or parchment paper with overhang*
• 1 packet of crackers of your choice, crushed *I use Marie crackers, coffee flavor. About 40+ pieces* 
• 250 g butter, cut into 8 pieces
• 1 tin of condensed milk
• 4 heaping Tbsp cocoa powder 

1. Heat a medium pan on low heat, melt the butter. careful not to let the butter browned
2. Once 80% of the butter has melted, put in condensed milk and cocoa powder. stir to incorporate
3. Remove from heat and stir in all crushed crackers, folding to coat the pieces with chocolate mixture
4. Put in prepared pan, cover with cling wrap and pressed tightly with your hand so that the cookie pieces stick together*i divide mine into two 9 inch rectangle cake pan*
5. Let it cool down in room temperature, then transfer to the fridge for at least 1-2 hours 
6. Cut with a sharp knife to serve
