Eggless Pudding Cookies and homemade Cookie Tray

December 22nd, 2008 Madhuram Posted in Cookies | | 35 Comments »

Few months back I had baked eggless butter pecan cookies using instant butterscotch pudding mix, which was a big hit. These pudding cookies are very easy to put together and taste very good. You don’t need eggs, baking soda, baking powder or sugar. With only 3 ingredients (nuts optional) butter, pudding mix and flour you can bake these amazing pudding cookies in no time. If you are interested in baking but have not baked before this is “the recipe” you should try. Nothing can go wrong and I guarantee that everybody who taste these cookies will be asking you for the recipe.

Since it’s Christmas season, I’ve decided to bake goodies and give it to the people in my community, like the firefighters, ER workers, librarians, post men, etc. So I decided to bake these pudding cookies in 3 different flavors, create an assorted cookie tray and hand it over to some of them.

This time I tried the instant pistachio pudding mix and french vanilla flavors. Simply follow the butter pecan cookies recipe and substitute the butterscotch pudding mix with pistachio pudding mix for 1 batch and french vanilla pudding mix for another batch. Also substitute the pecans with chopped pistachios and mini semi sweet chocolate chips respectively.

The 2 changes I made this time was:

1 Toasting the nuts before adding it to the dough. This gave a nice crunch to the cookies. Toast the nuts in the oven itself while it is preheating.

2 Shaping the dough into balls and then flattening it with my palm. For this I first dropped tablespoonsful of dough on the baking sheets. I got 21 cookies for each mix. Then I greased my hands by with little butter (from the butter wrapper) and then rolled each into ball and then flattened it by pressing it with my palm. So this time I got beautiful round cookies for all the batches. Last time I just dropped a tablespoonful of dough and used a fork to press it down.

These cookies go to
1. Sharmi’s Cookie Baking Event.
2. Happy Cook’s Homemade Christmas Gifts.
3. JZ’s Santa’s Holiday Challenge.
4. Vandana’s Baking for Beginners.
5. Susan’s Eat Christmas Cookies. Check here for cookies from around the world.

   Hi Madhu,

   I gone through all your recipes. I wanted to try out some cookies. Yesterday I tried one simple butter cookies in my microwave convection oven. It turned out a bit hard. If I bake any cookies in OTG, is it turns out soft? It was looking like the same one you have in this photo. Please tell me whether you get the cookies like what you get it in Bakery?

   Thanks,
   Hema
   
   Hi Hema, I don’t have experience baking in a m/w oven, but these cookies turned out so good in the regular oven.

   Dear Madhuram

   I just baked these cookies yesterday using Vegetable Oil Spread and Pistachio Pudding (thus made vegan). Those were amazing- All my friends liked it.

   Thank you and Wish you all very happy new year.
   
   You’re welcome ABC. I was wondering what happened to you because I didn’t hear anything from you over the past couple of months. It’s great to know that oil works fine too in this recipe. Happy New Year to you too.

   I was seriously dissapointed. There was no recepie for this at all. All that’s posted are the ingredients. Do you bake them?? put them in the freezer for 3 hours, put everything in the garbage disposal after you mix it all???? What do you do after you mix everything?????
   
   Hi Luana, I understand your frustration but I would appreciate some politeness while commenting. You wouldn’t have been disappointed had you gone through the post carefully. I have given the link to the recipe for pudding cookies in the very first line of the paragraph itself, in the dark blue color highlighted words “eggless butter pecan cookies”.

   Anyways, I’m giving it here once again. http://www.egglesscooking.com/2008/08/03/eggless-butter-pecan-cookies/
