Reduce mixer speed to low; add a third of flour mixture and a third of milk, and mix for ⏱️ 30 seconds. Scrape down sides of bowl. Repeat. Add remaining flour mixture and only enough milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, to yield a smooth dough, and mix. (It should not be too sticky.)
4
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Transfer batter to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip (about 1/2 inch wide). Pipe 4-inch-long cookies onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart. (Keep batter refrigerated between batches.)

Bake cookies until lightly golden around edges, about ⏱️ 15 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
