<p>Ever wondered how to make Millies cookies from the comfort of your own home? This recipe is perfect for recreating delicious, chewy, and gooey Copycat Millie’s Chocolate Chip Cookies whenever you fancy them. They bake in less than 10 minutes, so they’re a brilliant idea for a quick dessert - and kids love them.</p>
<h3>The best ways to eat Copycat Millie’s Chocolate Chip Cookies</h3>
<p>Once baked, let them cool down and set for a few minutes before enjoying. Or if you really can’t wait, you can enjoy them whilst they’re soft and warm with a scoop of ice cream.</p>
<p>You can also choose to fill your cookies however you want. Try a combination of milk chocolate chips, white chocolate or dark chocolate. You can even use mini eggs, smarties or M&amp;Ms to make them even more unique</p>
<p>If you prefer a crunchy cookie, leave them in the oven for 10 minutes, as opposed to 7.</p>
<h3>Can I freeze cookie dough?</h3>
<p>You can easily plan ahead with this cookie dough recipe and freeze it to enjoy it anytime. Once you’ve made your dough mixture, roll it tightly in cling film to make sure it’s air-tight, or put it into a container, then pop it into the freezer.</p>
<p>Defrost the cookie dough for around 4-5 hours before you want to make the cookies, roll the defrosted dough into shape and start baking. Or to make things even easier, roll into cookie-sized balls before freezing and bake from frozen; the cookies will still taste just as delicious and hold their shape better due to the quick temperature change from cold to hot.</p>
<h3>How long do Copycat Millie’s Chocolate Chip Cookies keep for?</h3>
<p>These Homemade Millie’s Chocolate Chip Cookies should keep for around 4 days when stored in an airtight container.</p>

Copycat Millie’s Cookies Recipe

<p>Our no-bake rocky road recipe is simple, delicious and fun to make. It’s filled with gooey marshmallows and crumbly biscuits, then covered in rich, velvety chocolate.</p>
<h3>What does rocky road have in it?</h3>
<p>Typically, rocky road contains dark and milk chocolate, with chunks of marshmallow and biscuit inside. However, variations also contain peanuts, raisins, almonds, or anything else you like! We’ve also drizzled ours in white chocolate, but you could also do this with Nutella or caramel sauce.</p>
<h3>How did rocky road get its name?</h3>
<p>Rocky road takes its name in reference to the chunks of biscuits and chocolate packed into the recipe.</p>
<h3>What’s the difference between tiffin and rocky road?</h3>
<p>Often, rocky road is known as ‘rocky road’ in the US and known as ‘tiffin’ in the UK. However, the difference between rocky road and tiffin is how the chocolate mixture binds together, as well as the ingredients used.</p>
<p>Some tiffin recipes often use condensed milk and cocoa powder, then add the chocolate on top. <a href="https://www.bakingmad.com/recipes/tiffin">Tiffin</a> also tends to contain a medley of fruits, rather than the marshmallows found in rocky road. Rocky road is typically made using melted chocolate and syrup to hold the ingredients together.</p>

<p>Once you’ve mastered this recipe, you can go wild exploring new flavour combos. Try adding Caramac or Biscoff spread to add a new twist - we've shown you how to amend the recipe below.</p>
<h2>How to make Caramac Brownies:</h2>
<p>Caramac lovers: Break 6x 30g bars into the brownie mix right before baking. Once&nbsp;baked, drizzle a melted 30g bar over the top.</p>
<h2>How to make Biscoff Brownies:</h2>
<p>Bonkers for Biscoff? Dollop 200g Biscoff spread into the brownie mix, right before&nbsp;baking. Break up 5 Biscoff biscuits and place the pieces&nbsp;on top of the brownie batter. Bake for 20 minutes extra.</p>
