If you’ve been eyeing up the new M&S Chunky Custard Cream Cookies, you’ll love this gluten and dairy free version. Inspired by the popular bakery treat, these thick, chunky cookies are packed with creamy vanilla custard flavour and chunks of dairy free white chocolate for a nostalgic twist on the classic biscuit.
Soft and chewy in the middle with lightly crisp edges, these bakery style cookies are every bit as indulgent as they look. They’re surprisingly easy to make and perfect for everything from an afternoon treat with a cup of tea to sharing with family and friends. Best of all, they’re completely gluten and dairy free, so everyone can enjoy a homemade version of this delicious M&S inspired cookie. If you do make this recipe I’d love to see, don’t forget to tag me in your photos over on social media!
Frequently Asked Questions
How long will these cookies last?
These cookies will last in an airtight container for up to 3 days however, are always best served on the day you make them.
Can I freeze the cookie dough?
This cookie dough recipe is suitable for freezing. Just freeze the dough in balls and cook from frozen for a few minutes longer than the recipe states.
Which butter do you use for the cookies?
I use the Stork ‘perfect for baking’ 250g gold packet butter which is naturally dairy free and available in most major UK supermarkets. If you can’t get hold of this butter, it’s always best to use a hard dairy free butter block instead of a soft spread for the perfect cookie texture.
Which dairy free white chocolate do you use?
For this recipe and the majority of my baking, I use the Moo Free White Chocolate Bars
Which custard gluten free custard creams do you use?
Any gluten and dairy free custard creams would work. I like the Schar gluten free custard creams.
