3 Ingredient Condensed Milk Cookies
Easier than any sugar cookie recipe, these condensed milk cookies take only three ingredients and are perfect for cookie cutters. No eggs, no chilling. Use for Christmas cookies, linzer cookies, or any cookie occasion.

For Cookies
- 2
Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 3
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add softened butter, flour, and condensed milk.
- 4
Gently mix at a low speed until a dough forms.
- 5
Place cookie dough on a clean surface dusted with flour. Roll out to about 1/4 inch thick, using extra flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking.
- 6
Use cookie cutters to cut out your cookie shapes and place onto your prepared baking tray. Bake for 10 minutes or until a light golden brown color.
- 7
Allow cookies to cool before decorating. Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature.

For Icing
- 9
To make the icing, simply mix powdered sugar, milk, and food dye. I like to divide the ingredients for icing into three bowls to use three different colors. Dip or spread the icing over the cookies (these are not great for piping, just spreading) and let dry.
