Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of flour?

Yes, you can use whole wheat flour or a gluten-free blend, but it may slightly alter the texture and flavor. Whole wheat flour adds a nuttier taste, while a gluten-free blend can make the cookies more crumbly.

How do I store these cookies?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage. For best results, place a piece of bread in the container to keep the cookies soft.

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can refrigerate the dough for up to 3 days. Just let it come to room temperature before baking. Alternatively, you can freeze the dough balls and bake them straight from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.

How do I achieve the perfect cookie texture?

Ensure you don’t overbake the cookies. They should look slightly undercooked when you take them out of the oven but will continue to set on the baking sheet.

These eggless chocolate chip cookies are sure to become a family favorite. Perfect for any occasion, they’re quick to make and absolutely delicious. Enjoy the classic taste without the eggs!
