Introducing the famous 100 Cookie Recipe made with just 4 ingredients… butter, caster sugar, condensed milk and self-raising flour. This freezer-friendly cookie dough can be flavoured with any add-ins you like!
Yay! I’m so glad you’re here because you are going to LOOOOOOVE this 100 cookie recipe (especially if you have a LOT of hungry mouths to feed!). You might have already heard about this famous cookie dough recipe – but if not, it’s basically a super simple 4 ingredient recipe that makes 100 cookies. Yep 100!!!!! That’s a whole lotta cookies!
The ingredients in the 100 cookie recipe are:
- 500g butter
- 170g caster sugar
- 395g tin sweetened condensed milk
- 750g self-raising flour
Yep… they’re BIG quantities, but that’s because you’re making a bulk cookie dough here. Did I mention that you’re going to have 100 cookies coming out your ears soon??!!
My tip when making this 100 cookie recipe is to use a big bowl when mixing the ingredients together. Trust me on this one! You’ll have flour flying everywhere otherwise (I know this allllll too well!).
Then you simply divide the dough between small bowls and mix through any add-ins you like. Here’s a few that I used this time (and also some others that I’ve used in the past):
- Milo (malted milk)
- peanut butter
- chocolate chips
- raisins
- mini marshmallows
- Smarties, M&Ms etc
- sprinkles (stir some through but then also roll the dough balls in extra sprinkles)
- white chocolate
- crushed Cornflakes
- peanuts
And if you’ve still got some dough leftover, you can pop it into an airtight sealable bag and place it in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to use it, simply allow it to defrost to room temperature, roll into balls and then bake as per the recipe. You can also freeze any baked cookies for up to 1 month in an airtight container.
I hope you love this 100 cookie recipe – it really is such a great way to fill up the freezer with lunch box snacks and of course, it’s super budget-friendly too!

I THought l read that you can use margarine instead of butter is this true ?
Hi Lisa, I’ve only used butter xx
I’m making these today and don’t want to waste the butter in case can’t get more (in current “hoarding” environment in Australia) so I have used meadow lea margarine and it’s worked fine.
That’s so great to know!
This is so great I’ve made these 4 times now because my family can’t get enough! Thank you so much!!
Woooo hooo! I’m absolutely thrilled to hear that!!!
How much peanut butter do I put in? Would also like to make some cinnamon ones how much do I put in not the world’s best baker
Hi Kylie, it depends on how many of the biscuits you’re flavouring as to the quantity that you’ll need. I’d start off with a small amount of (like 1 tbs peanut butter and 1 tsp cinnamon) – have a little taste and add more if you need. 🙂
Thanks Lucy I made some and added cranberries they were so good.
Fantastic!!!
I tried this recipe out this morning as hubby and son love cookies and I had bought condensed milk in the hope of finding a good recipe with condensed milk. I was also wanting a recipe that would make lots of cookies so I wouldn’t have to spend all of my school holiday baking cookies. The recipe was great, has a good taste, not too sweet and just a good all round cookie. I made different batches using peanut butter, chopped chocolate, smarties, jelly tots and mixed fun fetti cookies.
The only issue i had was that the first two batches burnt within 5 min. The 180 degree oven temp is very high for a fan forced oven. I dropped mine right down to 160 and shortened the baking time by 3 min. the last 3 batches are perfect.
I will be making again and saving the recipe as a good go to in future.
thank you so much
