If you’re looking for a crowd-pleasing treat, the Biscuits/Cookies for the Masses are just what you need. The delightful cookies combine buttery richness with sweet chocolate, offering a wonderful balance of flavors. Perfect for any gathering, they’ll satisfy even the pickiest sweet tooth.
For those wanting to switch things up, consider using unsalted butter for a slightly different taste or experimenting with other chocolate types. If you’re gluten-free, a suitable flour blend can work wonders instead of self-raising flour. Always check labels to avoid allergens like dairy in the chocolate chips and condensed milk.

Biscuits/Cookies for the Masses Recipe
Ingredients
- 500 g butter
- 1 1/4 cups caster sugar
- 400 g sweetened condensed milk
- 5 cups self raising flour
- 250 g white chocolate chips
- 500 g dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 C.
- Grease and line 4 baking trays with parchment paper.
- In a very large bowl, cream together 500 g of butter, 1 1/4 cups of caster sugar, and 400 g of sweetened condensed milk using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and creamy.
- Sift in 5 cups of self-raising flour along with 250 g of white chocolate chips and 500 g of dark chocolate chips. Mix until everything is well combined – you want a thick, sticky dough.
- Using a tablespoon of the mixture, roll it into balls and place them on the prepared trays, leaving some space for spreading as they bake. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork for that classic cookie shape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 16 minutes, or until the cookies are light golden brown.
- Once baked, allow the cookies to stand on the trays for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Remember, the cookies store and freeze beautifully, making them perfect for future cravings.
