Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, stir in the brown sugar and mix until smooth and combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat, then whisk in the all-purpose flour and milk. Stir until a smooth, slightly thick batter forms.
Drop small spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 2-3 inches of space between each drop, as the cookies will spread thin.
Bake in the preheated oven for 7-9 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Enjoy the delicate, crispy sweetness!
