Positive Spin On Not Eating Eggs

Egg free Chocolate Chip Cookies

One benefit to being allergic to eggs is that we never have to worry about the possibility of  salmonella.  A few years ago when my oldest went to middle school and took her first FACS class she was shocked she could not taste the cookie dough they were making because it might cause salmonella poisoning from the eggs.  She came home and wanted to know what we used instead of eggs so we could eat the dough or was I really killing her by letting her eat raw dough.  In her life every time we made cookie dough she could taste it and I was not worried because we used Ener G egg replacer in all my baked goods.

So, today my daughter wanted to make some cookie dough for a treat.  She made sure I understood that she was only making dough just to  eat not cook.   After eating about a cup, or about 4 1 tablespoon cookies, of the dough she wanted to know how she could store it for another day.

Kroger mini semi sweet chocolate baking chips package recipe

2 1/4 cup all purpose ( She added 1/2 cup more in              
                                          1/4 cup increments)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup of butter
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs  (We used 3 tsp Ener G egg replacer and 4 TBSP water)
1 pkg chocolate chips ( My daughter does not like chocolate very much so she only added 1/2 cup.)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Cream together the butter, sugars, and vanilla. Then add egg replacer until blended.  Add the flour salt baking soda and mix til blended.  Add the chocolate chips.  Make 1 TBSP balls or roll into a roll and slice as shown.  If you are going to cook them bake for 8 to 10 min.


I did have her cook a batch or a dozen for the rest of us.  They turned out pretty good.  I have another chocolate chip cookie recipe that I like a little better but this one was not half bad.  Not something I would eat everyday because of the high sugar and butter content but pretty good and I did not have to make them.
