Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies


Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies




I felt like baking cookies. But I had never baked them before! Hence, just like any other beginner, cautious yet curious, I looked up for a hassle-free recipe online. I found one which was simple and yielded less number of cookies. I chose it and played with the ingredients as mentioned in it. The result was simply lip-smacking!





Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies



Why egg-less? 

It was due to a frighteningly terrible memory of having tasted some ghastly cookies with too much egg and very little sugar in them. They were baked by my spouse for the first time! He loves cookies. It was disheartening to see him loose his confidence at baking after that. And so I felt like giving it a shot myself to help him bake his favorites at home by avoiding over-ambitious elements like eggs!

Recipe?

This amazingly simple recipe is by Kanan who has it on her blog "Spice Up The Curry" . It's accurate! It did not need any meddling with the quantity of ingredients or time of cooking. I followed all her advice like - flatten the cookies before baking, refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes if soft.

Deviations?

I did deviate from the recipe a bit. I added granulated sugar instead of brown sugar as I did not have it.

Result?

15 crisp & delicious cookies, my increased confidence levels on the baking front and a happy husband! Thanks Kanan!
