Easy Condensed Milk Brownies - Eggless Recipe
So if you're wondering "can I substitute sweetened condensed milk for eggs in brownies?" let me assure you that you can! If you love fudgy, chocolatey goodness without eggs, you've got to make this easy condensed milk brownie recipe! Eggless and made with gooey chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and rich cocoa powder, they are just what you need for your chocolate craving! I'm telling you, these are the fudgiest brownies I've ever made. I wouldn't even notice that they're made without eggs!
Can you use condensed milk in baking?
Absolutely! Sweetened condensed milk is essentially sweetened milk that has been cooked down to so that some of the liquid evaporates and it takes on a slight caramelized flavor. It adds a richness and sweetness that is so unique, and gives your baked goods a delicious texture! And as you'll see in these brownies, it's a great substitute for the richness added by eggs, and adds a deliciously fudgy texture.
What can I do with leftover condensed milk?
If you're wondering: what can I use sweetened condensed milk for? I've got so many ideas! I use condensed milk in my Lemon Dump Cake, as well as my Lemon Icebox Pie and Key Lime Pound Cake! It's also so useful in no-bake desserts like my Blackberry Cheesecake Ice Cream! But if you're in the mood for chocolate, you can't go wrong with this easy condensed milk brownie recipe!
Ingredients
- sweetened condensed milk - I use Eagle Brand condensed milk, but your favorite condensed milk brand should work! Or check below for the coconut milk option to make them vegan!
- melted butter - you'll want to use unsalted butter in these brownies. It should be melted and then cooled to room temperature.
- light brown sugar - I love using brown sugar in brownies -- it adds to that chewy, fudgy texture and adds so much flavor!
- vanilla extract - be sure to use a high-quality pure vanilla extract. Or better yet, check out my post on how to make vanilla extract at home with just 2 ingredients!
- unsweetened cocoa powder - my favorite cocoa powder is Ghirardelli, but any unsweetened cocoa powder should work!
- all-purpose flour - make sure you measure your flour with a kitchen scale, or by using the spoon-and-level method.
- baking powder - adding a little baking powder helps to lighten the texture of these brownies a bit, but they're still thick and fudgy!
- sea salt - to bring out the chocolate flavor and offset the sweetness a bit. You can also sprinkle some coarse sea salt on top of your completed brownies!
- semi-sweet chocolate chips - nothing better than gooey chocolate chips inside of freshly baked brownies!
Equipment
The main tool you'll need for these brownies is a 9x9 baking pan to bake them up. Otherwise, you'll just need some basic mixing tools like a mixing bowl, a whisk, and a rubber spatula!
Condensed Milk Brownies - No Butter
If you prefer, you can make these condensed milk brownies with no butter by just swapping the butter for melted coconut oil or any neutral vegetable oil.
Vegan Condensed Milk Brownies
You can also make these brownies vegan by making the following swaps:
- Swap out the melted butter for melted vegan butter like Earth Balance Organic.
- Make sure your brown sugar is vegan-friendly.
- Use sweetened condensed coconut milk instead of regular sweetened condensed milk!
- Use vegan chocolate chips.
Can you cook with condensed milk?
I don't know of many savory cooking recipes made with condensed milk, since it's so sweet -- I could picture it being used in a sweet-and-salty glazed meat, or in a sweet stir-fry sauce!

We just put our brownies in the oven. It was fun to make with my 2 and 4 year old, plus they were excited to taste the batter. When baking with eggs they can't try so this is a perfect bake with young children. Thank you!
Chenée Lewis
Wonderful! I hope they loved them!

Chenée Lewis
Thanks! They're super fudgy!
Linda B
I want to make these as little additional DIY Christmas gifts for some children. Will they freeze and if so for how long and how should I wrap them? Also, without freezing how long will they keep and how sould I store them?
Chenée Lewis
Hi! Yes they should freeze well for up to two months, wrapped in plastic wrap and then placed in a freezer bag or an airtight container. Otherwise, they should stay fresh at room temperature up to 3 days in an airtight container. Hope this helps!

Good afternoon Sunshine. Can I double the recipe and bake in a half sheet pan?
Chenée Lewis
Hi! I would suggest baking a double batch in a quarter sheet 9x13 pan. If you used a half sheet they would end up too thin I think. With a 9x13 pan they'll be a little thicker and need a couple more minutes in the oven.
Shasha
Perfect recipe. Brownies were moist and chewy. Really good. The step by step tips were actually helpful.Thanks.

Rich, dense and chocolatey, what more needs to be said of these incredible brownies! I've never made brownies with condensed milk and now that I've got your recipe I may never go back to making them the regular way. One question though, how do I not eat the whole pan myself? lol
Chenée Lewis
I still haven't figured that one either!! haha
Mikayla
Uh.. can you say the fudgiest brownies ever! These were so delicious and the sea salt flakes made them feel decadent. As for left over condensed milk.. goes pretty well in coffee!
Chenée Lewis
Ooh great idea! Glad you liked the recipe! 🙂
Hannah Howe
These brownies are life changing. I loved them. Super super easy to make and I didn't worry about giving my kids the leftover batter because theres no eggs! This definitely will be my new go to recipe for brownies. I dont need to buy a box mix ever again!
Chenée Lewis
I'm so happy to hear that! And I hadn't even thought about that brownie batter thing -- definitely sneaking a few spoonfuls of batter next time I make these!
Christi J
Chenée's recipe was - as always - super easy to follow, and these brownies were super easy to make! My fiancé loves all things chocolate, and he LOVED these. He had three last night alone. LOL
I love the spin on preparation and feel like the recipe created a deliciously fudge-y brownie that had just the right amount of gooey-ness. I definitely recommend giving these a try if your house loves brownies. I added just a smidge of almond extract to mine to add a bit more sweetness, as my cocoa powder was hella expired (whoops!), and they came out perfect. I'll do us another batch next week with fresh cocoa powder just to compare!!
Chenée Lewis
Thank you so much Christi! I love the simplicity of this recipe and they can be super addictive!!
