These chocolate chip condensed milk cookies are simple and delicious. This recipe uses a whole can of sweetened condensed milk. So, you don’t have to worry about what to do with leftovers.
These old fashioned cookies have a mild buttery vanilla flavor with hits of chocolate throughout. You won’t believe how easy the dough is to make and you don’t have to chill it before you scoop and bake.
That means you can have a whole pile of delicious cookies in almost no time at all. That is always a win in my book!
While adding a whole can of condensed milk to a batch of cookie dough might seem like it would make really sweet cookies, but these cookies are less sweet than your traditional chocolate chip cookies.
Instead, these cookies almost have short bread vibes. They start out with a bit of soft chew, but after a couple of days they could almost be completely mistaken for shortbread cookies.
If you want crunchier cookies from the start, just bake them for an extra minute or two. They are great pale, but a little extra caramelization can be good too.
Because cookies and cookie dough both freeze so well, I prefer to make a large batch. Especially if that means I can do it without having strange bits and pieces of ingredients laying around.

So, this recipe uses the whole can of sweetened condensed milk and makes about 80 cookies. We shared some at family dinner and froze the rest for easy sweet snacks later.
If you prefer to freeze the dough, just scoop it onto a sheet tray and freeze the balls of dough for an hour or two. Then, put the frozen balls of dough into a freezer bag for later.
You can bake them from frozen. Just add a minute or two to the bake time and you will have fresh, warm, oven baked cookies in no time at all.
That makes them perfect for surprise guests or after school snacks. There is no bad time for a fresh baked cookies!
Okay, you are just seven ingredients away from cookie goodness. So, what are we waiting for?
