Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

My nephew loves chocolate, let it be in any form so when we were visiting my sister I baked this chocolate chip cookies for him.  Since my sister in-laws are here I had to do it eggless, I looked around for eggless recipe but couldn't find any thing interesting and to find a egg replacement for cookie is not that easy indeed.  So I just one thing, eliminated the egg part from the recipe and followed the rest, the result was just so awesome.  

I received wonderful feedback and everyone loved this cookies including my colleague with whom I shared these and that's makes me a happy person :) so if you are looking for egg less recipe then this is for you with no difference in taste or texture, try this and you will love these too.  

Makes 2 dozen cookies.

Ingredients:

Recipe Source: Joyofbaking

Butter - 1/2 Cup at room  temperature

White Granulated Sugar - 1/3 Cup

Brown Sugar - 1/3 Cup packed [ I used dark brown sugar]

Vanilla Essence - 1 tsp

Plain Flour - 1 Cup

Baking Soda - 1/2 tsp

Salt - a pinch

Chocolate Chip - 1/2 Cup

Chopped Walnut - 1/4 Cup [optional]

Method:

1. Sieve flour, salt and baking soda,  keep aside.  Preheat oven to 375F/190C. 

2. In a bowl beat butter until smooth and creamy, add white and brown sugar.

~ Use the butter in room temperature it's gets the things done fast.  I normally keep my butter outside overnight.

.

3. Beat until fluffy or sugar dissolve about 2-3 minutes.  Add vanilla essence and mix well. 

4. Fold in flour in 2 batches and mix/beat until it combines.   Add chocolate chip and nuts (if using) and mix well. 

~ If the dough is very soft, cover and refrigerate dough for 30 minutes to 2 hours to make it firm.

5.  Scoop 1 tbsp of dough on a ungreased baking/cookie sheet leaving enough space between each piece and bake for 10-12 minutes or until cookies get golden brown on edges.  Cool on a wire rack and remove the cookies from sheet it's come out very easily, if not use a spatula to remove the cookies and store in airtight container. 

~ For large cookie scoop 2 tbsp of dough and bake for 12-14 minutes,  if you are baking the cookies in batches then keep the dough in fridge until you are ready to scoop it again.  My cookies were done in 10 minutes so keep a eye.   

My cookies are little on darker side cause I used dark brown sugar, if you use light brown sugar I guess the cookie color will be light brown. 

Enjoy your day ~~
