Eureka! Eureka! that’s what I screamed once I tasted these eggless chocolate chip cookies. I have baked crispy and chewy variety of eggless chocolate chip cookies earlier, but hands down this is the BEST. This recipe is from one of my favorite cookbooks “The Joy of Vegan Baking”. I didn’t have non dairy butter and non dairy semi sweet chocolate chips, so used regular butter and semi sweet chocolate chips. Other than that I did not make any changes in the recipe. The cookies turned out awesome. Crisp around the edges and chewy in the center. Just perfect. If you want to bake eggless chocolate chip cookies, then this is the recipe you must have.
Yield: 3 and 1/2 dozen cookies
2 In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla.
3 In a food processor/blender whip together the egg replacer powder and water together, until it’s thick and creamy. Add this mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, combine thoroughly.
4 In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt.
5 Gradually beat the flour mixture into the wet mixture until it begins to form a dough.
6 When it is almost thoroughly combined stir in the chocolate chips and nuts, if using.
7 I greased a tablespoon to scoop the dough and drop it easily onto the baking sheet.
8 Bake 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
9 Let stand for 2 minutes on the baking sheet itself. Then transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool
completely before storing.
2 For vegan chocolate chip cookies use non-hydrogenated, non dairy butter and nondairy semisweet chocolate chips.

Do you have a recipe for sugar cookies without eggs or with an egg replacement.
Hi Deanna, I did see a vegan sugar cookie recipe in the Joy of Vegan Baking, but did not try it. I’m sure that it will be good. If I remember, I think she had used EnerG instead of eggs. I’ll see if I can get a copy of the book in the library and will try to get the recipe. Or else you can try it too.

Hi Madhuram,
First, I just want to say thank-you for putting all this together. I love to bake and always tried to bake eggless, but
was very unsuccessful. Thanks to you, I have been able to bake here and there. I love chocolate chip cookies, but do not know how to bake eggless chocolate chip cookies. I tried this recipe, but I do not know what I did wrong. The cookies were sizzling in the oven with lots of butter. I know I did something wrong; I just can not figure it out. Please help me with any suggestions you may have! Thank you so much for all the wonderful recipes madhuram!
You’re most welcome Kanan. I think somebody else also had mentioned the same thing earlier. What happened once it came out of the oven? This recipe uses a lot of butter, so sizzling is quite common. Just don’t flatten the dough (simply drop it), so that it does not spread too much. Also these cookies (and almost all other drop cookies) continue to cook even after removing from the oven. So leave them undisturbed on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes and then transfer it to a wire rack.
Did you use EnerG or any other egg replacer (like Bob’s Red Mill)? I have also observed that blending Energ with (warm)water in a blender yields better result than simply whisking it with a fork. Hope this helps.
