eggless chocolate chip cookies recipe | Indian style eggless chocolate chip cookies | vegetarian eggless chocolate chip cookies | with 14 amazing images.
Our eggless chocolate chip cookies recipe are made specially for vegetarians who want eggless recipes in India. Taste of Indian style eggless chocolate chip cookies is as good as the regular cookies made with eggs. Ingredients to make vegetarian eggless chocolate chip cookies are chocolate chips, plain flour, baking soda, baking powder, powdered sugar, butter, little milk and vanilla essence.
Here is the perfect recipe to make delightful eggless chocolate chip cookies, which have an ideal melt-in-the-mouth texture and the sweet scent of vanilla, speckled with chocolate chips, which will add more joy to every bite.
eggless chocolate chip cookies are a must to complete the Christmas experience. Indian style eggless chocolate chip cookies are also a wonderful jar snack to have at home, to appease your sweet tooth as well as sudden hunger pangs. And, what better flavour of cookie to make than chocolaty ones!
Notes and tips to make the perfect eggless chocolate chip cookies. 1. Add the baking powder. It works as a leavening agent that helps the dough to rise well. In any recipe, the amount of baking powder should be used very precisely, as excess baking powder will cause the product to collapse while less baking powder will make it heavy. 2. Then add baking soda. Baking soda is also used as a leavening agent in baking. Baked recipes leavened using baking soda usually have a lighter crumb and show signs of aeration (in form of tiny holes) because of the escape of carbon dioxide. 3. Then whisk well to cream the butter and sugar. When you cream the butter and sugar, it does more than simply combining the two ingredients and making it soft, you’re beating air bubbles and air pockets into it, which is needed for the baking soda and baking powder to work.

Wonderful recipe. I''m very new to baking. My experience with All recipes from Tarlaji has been great. Thank you for sharing such great recipes which inspires us. The cookies came out pretty decent. We had powercut issues so we got mildly hardened cookies .

Priyanka

Though my cookies turned out pretty gud but I needed to flip them after half time so that they r baked from both sides evenly.. i m not sure if ths a problem with oven coz i m very new to oven cooking

Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi priyanka, you do not need to flip the cookies as it cooks perfectly.. at the given time.. it seems soft after it has been baked.. it gets crunchy, once completely cooled down..

Arti

Can i use ghee insted of butter in cookies

Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi Arti, We have not tried with ghee but it will not taste very good as compared to butter. So advice you to follow the same recipe...

Mahasweta
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hello, Thank you for the recipe. I tried it this evening. The cookies have come out very well. The taste and crunch is awesome. However, I do not have an OTG;so I used the convection mode of my microwave oven. I used 180 degree centigrade and baked for 20 minutes because at 15 minutes they were still quite soft on the outer side. As the tray for the microwave oven is round in shape, the space fell short for the 9 cookies when they increased in size. They stuck to each other.Two of them broke while trying to separate from each other. I will definitely try making them again, but maybe in lesser quantity at a time. The way they are enlarging, I guess not more than 4 will get baked properly in a microwave tray.( Mine is a 28 ltr one )

What will be the variation for wheat instead of maida?

Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi Shivani, You can try using any of the millet flour, which will be a good variation. The texture and taste will also be different.

Hi , I tried this reciepe the taste was good but we thought the biscuits were not very soft . How long should I pre heat the oven . The ones in the inside ( I mean the last row) was getting burnt . Should I not keep the dough in the refrigerator? The dough was not very soft should I mix the dough with lot of Pressure like we do for roti?s?

Shradha Jain
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi, I tried this recipe, and it came out very well. It is very simple receipe. The only thing which I modified was the time of baking. As I do not have oven I baked it in microwave convection, so it took almost 30minutes to cook. Please suggest if the timers differ for oven and microwave convection.

Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi Shradha, Happy to know you liked the recipe. The baking time differs for an oven and microwave. We have not tried baking them in a microwave. Do try more and more recipes and share with us your feedback. Happy Cooking!
