Eggless no bake biscuit brownie – a simple dessert recipe with Marie biscuits and condensed milk with added chocolate and chopped nuts. The mixture is pressed into trays and left to set in the refrigerator to get these brownie squares without any baking.
I love biscuit based sweets and desserts. That must be one reason why I love Twix bars! I love biscuit puddings and make the Marie biscuit chocolate logs pretty often to satisfy my biscuit dessert cravings.
This biscuit brownie is yet another wonderful addition to my list of quick and easy dessert recipes with biscuits as a base. It’s eggless and no-bake which definitely adds to the charm.
I often get asked for quick and easy bars and desserts that can be made without an oven or in the microwave. Since I enjoy baking, I hardly ever go actively looking for such recipes but when my cousin posted this in her blog couple of weeks back, I knew I had to try it as soon as possible.
I got Marie Biscuits during my next trip to the supermarket and made it that same weekend.
This recipe is perfect for you if you are looking for:
- A Marie biscuit dessert with condensed milk
- A brownie recipe without an oven
- An eggless brownie recipe with biscuits
- Recipes for chocolate-lovers
I don’t think I need to give you more reasons, do I?

Eggless No Bake Biscuit Brownie Recipe
Ingredients
- 20-25 Marie biscuits
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup roasted nut of choice I used hazelnuts
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1/2 of a 400gm tin condensed milk I used low fat Milkmaid
Instructions
- Break the biscuits into fours and powder coarsely
- Add the cocoa powder to this and mix well.
- Add the sugar to this mixture and mix again.
- Dry-roast any nut of choice and let it cool.
- Chop the nuts coarsely and add to the above and mix well.
- Add half a tin of condensed milk to this mixture.
- Mix well with a sturdy spoon.
- Line a plate, pie dish, or baking tray with butter paper (or just grease with some butter) and transfer the mixture to it.
- Press firmly with wet fingertips until the mixture is firm
- Cut into squares and serve.
- Store any remaining brownies in the refrigerator in an airtight container and consume within 3 days
Step by Step Instructions for Eggless No Bake Biscuit Brownie Recipe:
1. Break the biscuits into fours and powder coarsely. I left small bits of biscuits in this mixture to give the brownies some extra texture.
2. Add the cocoa powder to this and mix well.
3. Add the sugar next and mix again. If you prefer mildly sweet brownies, you can omit this step but I found the sweetness level perfect with 2 tsp sugar.
4. Dry-roast any nut of choice and let it cool. I had some roasted hazelnuts handy so used that. Roughly 1/4 cup should do.
5. Chop it up coarsely and add to the mixture. Mix well.
6. Add half a tin of condensed milk to this mixture. Feel free to lick up the remaining condensed milk sticking to the tin!
7. Mix well with a sturdy spoon. I would advice against using a whisk at this stage because the mixture will be very thick and would refuse to cooperate with a weak whisk or spatula. Use a steel or wooden spoon or ladle. Show it who is boss! Mix well until all the powdery bits are combined with the wet ingredients.
8. Line a plate, pie dish, or baking tray with butter paper (or just grease with some butter) and transfer the mixture to it. Press firmly with wet fingertips until the mixture is uniformly spread.
The colour of the biscuit brownies in the various pictures all look different because of the difference in lighting. Bear with me. Whatever colour the brownies are, they will be delicious, I promise.
9. Refrigerate for minimum 4 hours or overnight if possible. This picture was taken after 2 hours of refrigeration because I was impatient. If you are like me, you will get more fudge-y brownies that won’t hold its shape when you cut it.
If you refrigerate longer, then they can be cut into perfect squares and taste delicious. This was taken the day after I made them.

Hi Nags,
I am sujana…. i loved this site soo much with such easy recipes. And this particular one…. awesome.
Thought I’d use it for Fireless cooking in our summer camp. Though I just want to know if I can bake it and give the kids the brownie instead of waiting till the next day. The kids will be soo excited that asking them to wait till nxt day class would not be soo great. Hope u can help me out. Thanks!!!
hi, glad you like the site! you have to leave the brownies to cool and set in the refrigerator otherwise they won’t be easy to slice.
Hi, awesome recipie, hv d ingredients, making it for Holi!! can I use foil instead of butter paper??
sure!
Awesome. I like this easy way. Wonderful site. I am from Palakkad, Kerala. Lived in Bangalore, Muscat,Dubai and finally settled in U.S. Hope you will post more Arabic or Mediterranean recipes which are mostly wholesome and healthy. I love everything about your blog.
Thanks you so much Shyama, means a lot you say that 🙂 I’ll try to include more Arabic recipes, I love them too!
sounds easy… my type…I am going to try them tonight.. wait for the update:)
will do! 🙂
not sure i get your question. are you asking about the biscuits or the biscuits brownies? as in, your final product?
immediately after making, it will be sticky and fudgy but after refrigerating overnight, it will turn harder and you can easily cut into squares. it will not be crisp but softer like brownies
ok, your wait is over 🙂 I tried them yesterday.While going home I shopped for Marie biscuit and milkmaid 🙂
I reduced your recipe by half as was not sure about the final outcome 😉
It turned out very easy and simple recipe and I loved it. I was licking mixing bowl to make sure nothing is left in the bowl.
I took them to office today and every one just loved it 🙂
only one question, my biscuits were in proper shape but were not too solid or crisp, are they suppose to be like this. In last image I see them solid biscuits, not soft one's. I was very conscious while adding milk maid and added very little quantity, actually I had read all the comments to make sure I am doing right… learning from other's mistake 🙂
waiting to hear from you.
okay, then it was like brownie, I thought it will be very solid like last pic seems to be ….. :))))))
Is it ok if i don't have butter paper to line the baking tin. Can I just grease a tin and press the chocolate mixture and let to set in the fridge, will I be able to cut them into squares?
Waiting for your reply: rama.ananth@gmail.com
sure you can do that.
