Chocolate Mums

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup butter, melted
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup white sugar
• 0.5 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 0.25 cup heavy whipping cream
• 0.5 cup vanilla yogurt
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 36 pecan halves
• 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup, or to taste

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two baking sheets.
2. Stir 1/2 cup melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a large bowl; add sweetened condensed milk and stir.
3. Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl; melt in microwave on high for 90 seconds. Stir and continue melting in microwave in 30-second increments until smooth. Stir 2 tablespoons butter into melted chocolate until melted into the chocolate. Stir heavy whipping cream into chocolate.
4. Pour chocolate mixture into sugar mixture; stir yogurt into the resulting mixture. Add flour and baking powder and stir to incorporate. Drop about a tablespoon of batter per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each cookie.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are crispy, 15 to 17 minutes. Garnish each cookie with a pecan half and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
