Recently I've been seeing a lot of cookies that hang from the brim of cups. Since they always seem to be simple shapes, I tried making some myself. You could probably make monkeys too! Recipe by decocookie.

Steps

1

Return the butter to room temperature.
2

Put the butter in a bowl and cream it until it becomes smooth.
3

Add the sugar and cream until pale and thick.
4

Break the egg yolk and gradually add it to Step 3. Mix it in well.
5

Also gradually pour in the milk, the same as the egg yolk, and mix in well. Make sure to really combine everything well so that it doesn't separate.
6

Sift the black cocoa powder and the flour into Step 5. Mix well.
7

Gather up the dough from Step 6 into one mass and place on a paper towel. Cover it with plastic wrap from the top.
8

Roll the dough out until about 5 mm thick. Place in the refrigerator just like that for 30 minutes or more.
9

As the dough is chilling, make the cat pattern. Draw a cat on a piece of paper (you can buy pattern paper), and place it on a clear folder. Cut it out with scissors.
10

Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Place the pattern from Step 9 on the dough and cut out the shapes with a knife.
11

Bake for 18-20 minutes in a preheated to 170°C oven. Once baked, let them cool at room temperature.

Hang the cats from a cup containing your favorite drink, and enjoy!!
