Recipe: Eggless chocolate-filled cookies

I browsed through a few cookie recipes on the web but none seemed to suggest a good one to bake eggless chocolate-filled cookies. So I put a few basic ingredients together and tried my own recipe. For those of you who want to bake delicious cookies without tossing an egg or two in them, here's how:

Ingredients:
50gm butter
75 gm sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
150 gm condensed milk (a can has about 400 gm so you need less than half)
1 tsp baking powder
2.5 tbsp cocoa powder
1.5 cups all purpose flour or maida

Method:
Take a container, plop the butter and sugar in it. Mix well for 2-3 minutes.
Add vanilla essence, condensed milk and mix again.
Now sift the flour, cocoa and baking powder and gently fold in into the butter-mix you made above.
Use a few drops of milk if the batter is too crumbly. It is not supposed to be smooth and runny like a cake batter do please don't "pour" milk/water in t..
Now knead it like normal dough, cover in cling wrap and keep it in the fridge for 20-30 mins.
Take out the dough, roll it with a rolling pin, cut 1.5 inch circles (use a small bowl).
Take a baking tray. Line it with butter paper. Spread a base circle of your cookie batter, pour some melted chocolate on it with a spoon, then put another circle of your cookie batter and pinch the sides so that your batter does not flow out. Repeat and use the entire batter.
Pre heat over for 10 mins to 180 degrees.
Put in your cookie tray.
Bake for 9-11 minutes at 150 degrees.
Let it cool. Serve with chilled milk or gobble them down as they are. Happy eating!
