This copycat recipe for gluten free Milano cookies tastes just like the crispy vanilla cookies with the thin sliver of fudge filling.

About Nicole Hunn

Hi, I’m Nicole. I create gluten free recipes that really work and taste as good as you remember. No more making separate meals when someone is GF, or buying packaged foods that aren’t good enough to justify the price. At Gluten Free on a Shoestring, “good, for gluten free” just isn’t good enough!

    Linda, I would point them in the direction of the Gale Gand recipe I linked to in the blog post. :)

    Who needs a national name brand of cookies when we can make these? These look really good :) :) Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)

    Hi, i’m new. I just went gluten free about a month ago and have been missing baking. But now that i found you site i can’t wait to try these recipes. I think these might be slipped into the christmas cookie pile(maybe do some orange or mint ones with jimmies on the sides)

    1. Nicole says:

      Hi, Sarah,
      Welcome, then. If you slip these into the Christmas cookie pile, I bet they’ll be the first to go! I love mint. Mmmm mint milanos… My husband is from Philly, & I will have to tell him that you called them “jimmies.” He swears that sprinkles are one thing, and ‘jimmies’ are another. Me? I like ’em all, as long as they’re GF.
      I hope you’ll stick around. Tomorrow – red velvet cupcakes. :)
      xoxo Nicole

        Yes jimmies and sprinkles are different things. I’m in southern new england and use to work at ice cream places. When you add “shots” to the mix it can be fun.

        Looking forward to the cupcakes. Gotta grab some more ap mix today so i can bake something.

      2. Nicole says:

        Okay, now I have to look up “shots.” So many things to learn! Glad you’re here to teach me, Sarah. :)

    You’re absolutely right–good point. We should make our own junk food–at least it’s probably safer than the stuff in the package from what I’m reading about what’s really behind commercial packaged food. Better tasting too!

    You’re scary, know that? I was watching one of those ridiculous P Farm Milano ads–you know the one–sexy nibbling- can’t- wait- to- get- my hands- on- one and then the reality hits and time to turn the channel. You would be the one to pull us through. Once again–like so many times–you fill the need and make us feel like a ‘regular’ person again–ok, before I start bawling….time to get baking! Thanks–that’s not enough–but anyway, THANKS! xoxLinda

      Hi, Linda!
      Funny, it seems that this P’Farm commercial is everywhere — except I haven’t seen it! If I had known it was making you sad, I would have posted this sooner! It is so all about feeling “regular,” since we are regular. If anything, we’re better than regular, since we make our own junk food, just like we’re supposed to. ;)
      xoxo Nicole

    I was feeling sad in the store the other day becase the Pepperidge Farm milanos were on sale. This is perfect timing. I think I will add peppermint to the chocolate to make mine Mint Milanos. YAY!!!
