For this month’s Penotti Canada recipe, I chose to work with Duo Penotti Cookies & Milk spread. I mean, it’s the summer holidays in Canada which means there will be a lot of kids with a lot of time on their hands. What could be better than have them help make their own snacks? And who doesn’t like an easy cookie recipe? This one has only a handful of ingredients so if you have a jar of Duo Penotti in your pantry, you’re probably set. They only take a few minutes to whip up and bake so you can literally have a warm cookie in your hand (and in your glass of milk) in under an hour.
The Duo Penotti Cookies & Milk spread tastes exactly like a certain chocolate cream sandwich cookie that I used to enjoy when I was younger. It’s is made with real cookies (50%), organic milk, UTZ certified cocoa (supporting sustainable cocoa farming) and RSPO certified sustainable palm oil. It’s not too sweet which I really like in a spread and it’s great to bake with because it’s not too sweet. It makes for a soft cookie, yet sturdy cookie that’s perfect for dunking. To get your cookies perfectly round, I suggest using a cookie scoop – less mess to clean up as well!
- 175 mL (3/4 cup) Duo Penotti Cookies & Milk Spread
- 1 large egg
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 150g (1 cup) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon flaky sea salt
- Preheat oven to 350˚F and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, using electric hand beaters, mix the Cookies & Milk Spread, egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda and sea salt together and gradually combine with the wet ingredients with the mixer on low speed.
- Use a 1½ teaspoon cookie scoop to portion the cookies. Flatten them slightly onto the tray with the bottom of a small glass. Place the cookies about 5cm (2 inches) apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Allow the cookies to sit on the trays for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool to room temperature.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days.
What about you – what’s your favourite cookie to enjoy with a glass of milk?

These look delish!
Thanks! They were pretty tasty!
I definitely have some kids who love to bake, with some time on their hands! This looks like a great solution. My fave cookie to dunk is anything chocolate, but I LUV LUV the grown-up version of that activity- dunking biscotti in coffee!
Oh yes! Love biscotti dipped in coffee!
Yum! They look irresistable those cookies! Especially with a nice warm glass of milk! I’m due for some break of that eternal diet…
Well, I’m sure one little cookie wouldn’t hurt…
Wow these look so tasty! I’ve never even heard of this cookies and milk spread, I hope I can buy it at my local grocery store! YUM
It’s definitely starting to become easier to find all over Canada – good luck!
Having kids in the kitchen is so fun! They love measuring and stirring and tasting. This is a nice easy recipe for kids to tackle!
Yes it’s a good one, so easy but tasty!
