Condensed milk choc chip cookies were part of my childhood, I have such fond memories of the smells of making them, and baking them. If you are from New Zealand you possibly have fond memories of the condensed milk choc chip cookie recipe in the Edmonds recipe too, I know that is the recipe my mum made for us.
This is my version of the Santé biscuits from the Edmonds recipe book. As always I have tinkered a little to maybe improve the nutritional profile. For me, in this recipe, it is the substitution of some of the white flour for oats. It makes me feel like the energy they provide may be a little more sustaining. But honestly who am I kidding, this is not one of my typical Low Sugar recipes, this recipe is totally a treat recipe. A recipe I just love making with my kids because sometimes a bit of butter and sugar makes the world go round!
I’ve also used brown sugar instead of white. But note this is for no health reason what so ever!! I just like the flavour and the texture that it gives. If you are looking for a lower sugar cookie recipe, then do not fear I have a lot of those! If you want a more traditional chocolate chip cookie then this is the no fail condensed milk cookie recipe for you!
If you are looking for a low sugar cookie recipe, then do not fear I have a lot of those! Chickpea Chocolate Chip Cookies, Orange Choc Chip Oat Cookies, Apple Oat & Raisin Cookies and my Fruit Sweetened Cookies. If you want a more traditional chocolate chip cookie then this is the no fail condensed milk cookie recipe for you!
Up until now, I have really only shared the healthy recipes I make for my family, the lower sugar recipes, the recipes that boost fruit and vegetable intake. That type of recipe will always be the main stay of my blog. But, every so often I will share recipes that I love making for and with my family. Recipes that are not for any health reason, but recipes that are laden with fun food memories for my family, and maybe for yours.

- Mix, I use a wooden spoon for this stage rather than my cake mixer or electric beater
- Add the chocolate, and mix until it is relatively evenly distributed
- Take teaspoon fulls and roll into balls (you should end up with approximately 25 balls, depending on how many are gobbled up during the process)
