I found this recipe in the cookbook cookies! A cookie lover's collection. Prep time includes chill time.

In large mixing bowl , combine butter , sugars , egg and vanilla.

Beat at medium speed of electric mixer until light and fluffy.

Add flour , melted chips , milk and baking soda.

Beat at low speed until soft dough forms.

Cover with plastic wrap.

Chill 3 to 4 hours , or until firm.

Heat oven to 350f.

Divide dough into thirds.

Cover 2 / 3 dough with plastic wrap.

Chill.

On lightly floured surface , roll remaining third dough to 1 / 4-inch thickness.

Using 2 to 3-inch cookie cutters , cut desired shapes into dough.

Place shapes 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.

Repeat with remaining dough.

Bake for 6 to 7 minutes , or until edges are golden brown.

Cool completely.

If desired , decorate cookies with favorite frosting.

Let dry completely before storing.
